Recipe: Sweet and Spicy Stir Fry with Chicken and Broccoli

Ingredients:

• 3 cups broccoli florets
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cut into 1 inch strips
• 1/4 cup sliced green onions
• 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon chile paste
• 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
• 1/8 cup chicken stock

Directions:

• Place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 5 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat, and saute the chicken, green onions, and garlic until the chicken is no longer pink and juices run clear.
• Stir the hoisin sauce, chile paste, and soy sauce into the skillet. Season with ginger, red pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the chicken stock and simmer about 2 minutes. Mix in the steamed broccoli until coated with the sauce mixture.
