Recipe Time!


On my health journey, the one thing that's been the most influential is learning how to cook in ways that help my health goals, not sabotage them. Yummy and healthy is so easy now that I know where to begin!


This is one of my favorites that I just had to share! I've become more and more of a mustard fan, so of course, I amp it up just a touch with something a little spicier ;)

Ingredients


  • 1 lb raw, boneless, skinless chicken breast (should yield two 6-oz cooked servings)
  • 6 cups (1 small-medium bunch) fresh broccoli, trimmed and chopped
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tsp low-sodium or regular-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

Direction

Remove visible fat from chicken breast. Cut chicken into thin strips. In a bowl, coat chicken with soy sauce; set aside. (For increased flavor, marinate for 30 minutes.) Sauté broccoli, garlic, and 1 tsp olive oil over medium heat until lightly browned. Remove from skillet and cover to keep warm. Add 1 tsp olive oil to skillet. Stir-fry chicken 4-7 minutes or until cooked through. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, then stir in mustard until blended. Return sautéed broccoli to skillet. Mix until heated through, stirring occasionally. Divide between two plates.
