Chicken and Broccoli

I know I already have a Beef and Broccoli recipe and considered just mentioning the same recipe can be used with chicken in a footnote but it occurred to me that since I organize my recipes by categories, those who don’t eat beef might not even get to the recipe to realize this.

So to make sure the chicken lovers don’t feel left out, here’s a recipe for Chicken and Broccoli! This is a simple stir-fry with just a few sauces but does not disappoint in flavor.
