Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 2
Level: Easy

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
¼ cup tamari
¼ cup water or chicken broth
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
½ teaspoon sesame oil
½-inch knob ginger, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
Green onion (optional)

Roasted Broccoli

1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
2 tablespoons sesame oil
Salt and black pepper
1 teaspoon sesame seeds (optional)

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place the broccoli florets on a sheet pan and sprinkle with salt, pepper and sesame oil. Put the tray in the preheated oven and cook for 20 minutes.
Heat a skillet to medium and add olive oil.
In a small bowl, whisk together tamari, water or chicken broth, honey, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and arrowroot powder and set aside.
Add cubed chicken breasts and cook for about 5 minutes or until cooked through.
Give the sauce a quick whisk to incorporate any ingredients that may have settled and add to the pan. The sauce will thicken and begin to coat the chicken.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with green onions if desired.
Sprinkle broccoli with sesame seeds (optional).
