THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FANCY ABOUT THIS RECIPE, BUT IT TASTED GOOD AND USED UP THE BROCCOLI I HAD IN THE FRIDGE.
From the kitchen of: Katie...found it online...
Rice - I'll let you decide how much you want...
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into chunks
Non-stick cooking spray
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp black pepper (I also added a sprinkle of crushed red pepper because the original recipe had a bunch of reviews that said it was bland. I couldn't really tell that I put the red pepper in, but it looked more appetizing).
1 pkg (16oz) frozen broccoli florets (I used fresh because I happened to have it).
3/4 C chicken broth (I actually used 1 cup from bullion cubes and thought I could have used more, but maybe I had too much chicken and broccoli).
1 Tbs cornstarch
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbs lemon juice (I didn't measure this... just poured some, and liked the perhaps too much lemon flavor).
Get the rice going.
Place the chicken in a bowl and spray it with the cooking spray and toss it with the salt and pepper (I don't know how important the cooking spray is, but I did it anyway).
Cook the chicken in a pan also sprayed with the cooking spray (I assume you could use olive oil instead).
Add the broccoli and cook for a few minutes (I put a top on my skillet to help steam the broccoli).
In a small bowl combine the cornstarch and garlic powder. Slowly add the chicken broth to avoid clumping up the cornstarch.
Add the broth mixture to the cooking chicken and broccoli and heat until it thickens and the broccoli is to your desired tenderness.
Add the lemon juice, stir, and serve over rice.
MAKES: 4ish servings.
