This One Pot Keto Sesame Chicken and Broccoli is easy to make, only calls for inexpensive, real food ingredients, and best f all, it only dirties one pan.


Ingredients:


  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cubed
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 ½ teaspoon arrowroot powder
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 12 ounces broccoli florets
  • ¼ cup coconut aminos, or soy sauce

  • Green onions, sliced, for garnish


Instructions:


  1. Place the broccoli florets in a microwave safe bowl with 1 tablespoon of water and cover with a damp paper towel.
  2. Microwave for 2 minutes until the broccoli is just becoming tender.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the coconut aminos and arrowroot powder and set aside
  4. In a large skillet over medium heat, add the avocado oil and garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  5. Add the chicken to the skillet along with the salt and pepper, and sauté until cooked through, about 6 minutes.
  6. Once the chicken is just about done, add the sesame oil and broccoli to pan and sauté for an additional minute before pouring the coconut amino mixture over top.
  7. Sauté for 1 to 2 more minutes until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  8. Garnish with red pepper flakes, sesame seeds and green onions, before serving.
