From the Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook. Also, my sauce never really thickened, so I might skip the water next time and just use the juice and broth to cook the broccoli. I used the minced ginger in a jar to save time. Ingredients:
4 teaspoons canola oil |
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced and peeled |
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch strips |
2 cups broccoli florets |
1/4 cup water |
1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth |
1/4 cup orange juice |
3 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce |
1 teaspoon cornstarch, dissolved in 1 t water |
1 orange, peeled and sectioned |
Directions:
1. In a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat the oil.
2. Add the chicken, cook 3 minutes.
3. Add the ginger and cook ginger and chicken 2 more minutes, or til chicken is cooked through.
4. Transfer chicken to a plate and set aside.
5. In the skillet, combine the broccoli and water, stirring to scrape up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan; cook, covered, until tender-crisp, 3-4 minutes.
6. Return the chicken to the skillet; stir in the broth, orange juice, and soy sauce.
7. Add the dissolved cornstarch; cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture boils and thickens slightly.
8. Add the orange; heat through.
