From the 300-Calorie One-Dish Meal Cookbook. I have not yet tried it but it seemed like a nice and easy sesame chicken that is healthy! Ingredients:
1 cup water |
3 cups fresh broccoli florets, steamed |
pam cooking spray |
1 teaspoon sesame oil |
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into bit sized pieces |
8 ounces sliced water chestnuts |
2 green onions, diagonally sliced into 1 inch pieces |
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 tablespoon natural-style peanut butter |
2 teaspoons natural-style peanut butter |
2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce |
red pepper flakes |
1/4 teaspoon fresh grated ginger |
1/8 teaspoon curry powder |
3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar |
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. In a small mixing bowl, combine cornstarch, water, peanut butter, soy sauce, red pepper flakes (I like about 1/4 t), ginger, curry powder, and brown sugar. Set aside.
2. Spray a 10 nonstick skillet with Pam then add the sesame oil and heat on high till shimmering. Add chicken and cook through stirring constantly. Add water chestnuts and green onions and sauce.
3. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat and cook for 2 minutes.
4. Serve with Brocooli and sprinkle all with sesame seeds.
