Thick, garlicky gravy smothers golden chicken and tender-crisp broccoli in this Chinese dish. It's so easy, it may just become a weekly staple.

Ingredients

2 tsp Olive oil

3 Medium garlic clove(s), minced, or more to taste

1 pound Uncooked chicken breast, boneless and skinless, cut into 1-inch pieces

1 tsp Dried thyme, or 2 tbsp fresh minced thyme, or to taste

1/2 tsp Table salt

1/4 tsp Black pepper

2 cup Broccoli, florets

1 1/2 cup Canned chicken broth, reduced-sodium

1 1/2 tbsp Cornstarch

2 cup Cooked brown rice, kept hot

Preparation

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Season chicken with thyme, salt and pepper and add to skillet. Cook until browned on all sides, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes.

Add broccoli to skillet, cover and cook 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of broth, cover and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 1/2 cup of broth and add mixture to skillet. Simmer until mixture thickens, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Serve over rice. Yields about 1 cup of chicken mixture and 1/2 cup of rice per serving.
