Broccoli Chicken Dish

This dish that I created today is a rough copy of what my mother used to make. I don’t know how she does her dish but I tried to replicate what I thought would go in it. It ends up being VERY healthy and really is more fun than eating chicken breast and broccoli plain. It is pretty simple and takes no time at all.

Chicken Broccoli

TASTE

It is a simple taste, it can really be customized to what you want. I myself prefer a more bland taste but you can do what you want with it. I love the simplicity and the taste of this recipe.

  2. Chicken Broccoli

  3. 6 OZ or more of Chicken Breast

  5. Olive Oil
  6. Chicken Broccoli

  7. Dash of Salt and other Spices

  6. Let the pot boil for a minute.
  7. Drop the broccoli into the pot.

  17. Chicken Broccoli

  18. Put a small amount of salt/other spices you like onto the chicken right now.
  19. Move and flip these small chunks for 2-4 minutes until fully cooked. [I usually cut the biggest chunk in half to see if it has cooked all the way through]
  20. Combine the chicken into the broccoli bowl.

  22. Enjoy!

OPTIONAL

  • Throw a some almonds on top of this.
  • Add a teaspoon of cooking wine. [Kills meat's odor]
  • Add a teaspoon of salt. [For taste]
  • Add a teaspoon of corn starch. [Tenderizes the meat]

If my mom does make the dish her way again, I will be sure to jot it down. Her style has more flavor, but mine may be healthier.
