This week instead of dessert, the ChipMonks are going straight for the main course with this classic recipe, brought to you by our friend and partner Sugarless Crystals: Keto-Friendly Chicken and Broccoli. The secret is in the sauce 😉 Let's get cooking!

Keto Chicken & Broccoli Recipe:

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound skinless chicken breast
  • 2.5 cup fresh broccoli florets
  • salt and pepper for seasoning

Chicken Marinade

  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoon corn starch
  • 1 teaspoon oyster sauce

Stir Fry Sauce

  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoon oyster sauce
  • 2 teaspoon corn starch

Instructions:

  1. First, cut up chicken breast. Slice down the middle the long way of the breast. Now, you'll have 2 pieces out of which was one breast. Cutting the short way, slice chicken into 1/4 inch slices. Thin but not too thin.
  2. In a bowl toss in sliced chicken and toss in all ingredients for the marinade. Take you hand and mix everything up really well. Cover for 5-10 minutes. Make stir fry sauce by adding all ingredients together and set aside.
  3. Cut broccoli florets from to stalk. Also if eating rice or noodles with stir fry, start them now.
  4. Heat wok or frying pan on high heat. Add a little oil then toss in chicken. If using a pan do not crowd the chicken. Cook in batches instead.
  5. Once chicken is done toss in broccoli. For broccoli tenderness see notes below before you start cooking.
  6. Season broccoli with salt and pepper. Mix around then pour in stir fry sauce, immediately toss chicken back in
  7. Turn heat off. Mix everything together and allow the flavors to work together while the pan cools.
  8. Remove and serve. Nutrition facts don't include rice or noodles! Recipe makes 4 servings.

Helpful Recipe Tips

  • High heat, keep the heat high in this recipe. Its the key to allowing a great sear and quick cooking time. If using a pan do not crowd the pan. If you need to cook in sections do so. Move quickly and expect kitchen to be smoky.
  • Do I boil the broccoli first, if you like soft broccoli in stir fry then yes flash boil your broccoli. Use fresh broccoli in this recipe and if you want a crunch do not boil the broccoli.
