Chicken & Broccoli Stir Fry

Ingredients

  • 1 onion sliced thin
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1- inch piece peeled fresh ginger minced
  • 1 tablespoon arrowroot
  • 1/4 cup tamari
  • 2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
  • 2 pounds dark meat chicken thighs cubed
  • 5 cups to 6 broccoli
  • 3/4 teaspoon to 1 red chili flakes
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons salt

Instructions

  1. Fry onion in coconut oil until translucent.
  2. Add garlic and ginger, stir fry for one minute until fragrant.
  3. In a separate bowl whisk tamari, maple, arrowroot, stock and sesame oil and set aside.
  4. Add chicken to the onions in pan and cook for a few minutes.
  5. Add broccoli.
  6. Pour sauce over chicken and broccoli and cook until bubbly. You may need to add more stock, or water to thin the sauce. Broccoli should stay crisp but should be cooked through and chicken should be opaque, not pink inside.
  7. Season with sesame oil and chili flakes, if desired.

Recipe Notes

Use any combination of vegetables and proteins you have on hand. I often add mushrooms, peppers, baby corn and bean sprouts.
