Chicken with Broccoli and Oranges

4 tsp olive oil
one 2" piece of ginger root, peeled and julienned
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2" strips
2 cups broccoli florets
1/2 cup low fat, low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup orange juice
3 Tbsp. reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tsp cornstarch, dissolved in 1 tablespoon water
1 orange, peeled and sectioned

In a nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Saute the ginger root until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the ginger root to a small plate.

In the skillet, saute the chicken until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer to another plate. In the skillet, combine the broccoli and 1/4 cup water, sitrring to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan; cook, covered, until tender crisp, 3-4 minutes. Return chicken to the skillet; stir in the broth, orange juice and soy sauce. Add the dissolved cornstarch; cook, sitrring frequently, until the mixture boils and thickens slightly. Add the orange, heat through.

Serve, garnished with the ginger root.
