Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound ground chicken 450g
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha adjust to taste
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds for garnish
  • 2 green onions sliced for garnish

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Small bowl for sauce
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground chicken and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain any excess liquid.
  2. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Stir in broccoli florets and cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
  4. In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, sriracha, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Add the cornstarch slurry and whisk well until smooth.
  5. Pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli, stirring to coat evenly. Cook for another 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  6. Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, and serve over rice or cauliflower rice.

Notes

Adjust sriracha amount for desired spice level. Use low sodium soy sauce to control sodium content. Don't overcook broccoli to maintain crunch and color. Fresh ginger and garlic provide best flavor. Perfect for meal prep - stores 4 days refrigerated or 3 months frozen.
