Broccoli Chicken stir fry

Prep time:30min

Ingredients:

  • 250gms boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into ¾" pieces
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup chicken broth/stock
  • ¼ cup honey
  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • ½ Tbsp fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • 2 medium garlic cloves, grated
  • 2 tsp sesame oil, optional 
  • 2 Tbsp cooking oil (I used extra light olive oil), divided
  • 1 whole broccoli 
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • 1 cup capsicum(G/R/Y) sliced

Preparation:

  • Trim chicken breast of any excess fat and pat dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, toss chicken breast with flour until evenly coated. Remove chicken to a plate (leave remaining flour in the bowl - you'll use it for the sauce)
  • To make the sauce: in the bowl with remaining flour, add chicken stock, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, grated garlic and 2 tsp sesame oil (if using) and stir until smooth. Set aside.
  • Heat a wok or large heavy-bottomed skillet on medium high heat and add olive oil. Once oil is hot, add chicken pieces and spread out evenly. Let chicken sit for a minute before stirring, then stir fry 5 minutes or until browned. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
  • Add another 1 Tbsp of oil to the same pan. Once oil is hot, add small broccoli florets, onions and sliced capsicum(R/G/Y) for your choice to the pan and stir-fry 4 minutes, or until softened and broccoli is crisp-tender.
  • Stir the sauce again then add your hot vegetables. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Simmer 2 minutes or until sauce is thickened then toss in chicken and cook another 30 seconds or until heated through. 
  • Season to taste with salt if needed .
  • You can sprinkle seasame seeds on top(optional).
  • Serve over hot rice.
