INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 cup Broccoli
1/4 cup Orange Juice
1 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 clove Garlic
1 tsp Ginger
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1/4 tsp Chili Flakes
1 tsp Orange Zest
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) for broccoli roasting.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season lightly with salt and pepper if desired.
In a small bowl, combine orange juice, low sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, chili flakes, and orange zest to create the orange glaze.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breast for about 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned.
Pour half of the orange glaze over the chicken, reducing the heat to medium-low. Let the chicken simmer in the glaze for 5-6 minutes until the sauce thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
Meanwhile, toss the broccoli with sesame oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are crispy and slightly charred.
Plate the chicken and drizzle any remaining glaze over it, then serve alongside the crispy roasted broccoli.
