Ginger-Garlic Braised Chicken with Basil
Savor the aromatic flavors of ginger and garlic in this braised chicken dish accentuated with fresh basil. A gentle simmer with a hint of soy and chicken broth infuses the tender chicken with deep, savory notes, while a side of quinoa offers a light, nutty texture to perfectly round out the meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tbsp Fresh Ginger, grated
3 cloves Garlic
1 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
2 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
0.5 medium Red Bell Pepper, sliced
0.5 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a medium, deep skillet or saucepan over medium heat until shimmering.
Add the freshly grated ginger and minced garlic; sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Place the chicken breast in the pan and lightly sear on both sides until golden, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth and soy sauce, then add the sliced red bell pepper.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and let the chicken braise for 15-20 minutes, or until fully cooked and tender.
Stir in the chopped fresh basil during the last couple minutes of cooking.
Serve the braised chicken and vegetables over a bed of cooked quinoa, spooning some of the flavorful broth on top.
