I agree! This was easy, quick and lighter in calories. This was truly tasty! We loved the sauce and served it with zoodles to keep carbs and calories to a minimum. One thing I question though is the nutritional information. While it is low in calories, I believe with 2 T. of oils, there has to be some fat and surely each serving is more than 79 calories. Please let us know if the nutritional info needs updating. Thanks for a super recipe!

INGREDIENTS:

  • 1.25 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast, diced into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce, or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cold water
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • salt and pepper, optional and to taste
  • sesame seeds, for garnishing
  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 5 cups broccoli florets

DIRECTIONS:

  1. First, To a large skillet, add the oils, chicken, and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is nearly cooked through; stir and flip intermittently to ensure even cooking.
  2. Then, While chicken cooks, to a small bowl, add the cornstarch, water, and stir to dissolve; set slurry aside.
  3. To a separate medium saucepan add the brown sugar, soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce, ginger, stir to combine, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Allow mixture to bubble gently for 1 minute.
  4. After the mixture is boiling, add the cornstarch slurry, whisk to combine, and allow the sauce to boil and thicken for 2 to 3 minutes; whisking nearly constantly.
  5. Push the chicken to one side of the skillet, add the broccoli to the other side, evenly pour the sauce over the chicken and broccoli, and gently stir to combine and coat evenly.
  6. Cover skillet and cook for about 5 minutes, or until broccoli is as crisp-tender as desired.
  7. Optionally add salt and pepper, evenly sprinkle with the sesame seeds, and serve immediately. Recipe is best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months
