Always on the quest to find good low carb meals, this is one that we all love. Adjust the amount of the Chili Garlic Sauce you use depending on how spicy you like this dish. You can always add more at the table but you can't take it out!! :-) If we are able to have Dreamfield's pasta, I serve this over their spaghetti noodles and it is delicious (add 5 grams of digestible carbs for Dreamfield's). OR it is great just like it is for super low carb! Ingredients:
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped broccoli |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 tablespoon minced ginger (or 1 teaspoon ginger paste) |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
3 cups cooked chicken, shredded, about 3-4 chicken breasts |
1 tablespoon chili-garlic sauce (you know, the stuff in the jar with the seeds by huy fong foods, (for me this makes it pretty spicy ) |
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce |
1 cup low sodium chicken broth |
1 (1 g) packet splenda sugar substitute |

1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium high then add the broccoli in a single layer. .
