Description
A comforting dish featuring grilled chicken and sautéed broccoli, drizzled with a creamy garlic sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil (for sautéing broccoli)
Instructions
- Start by marinating the chicken: In a bowl, combine the low-sodium soy sauce, minced garlic, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Add the chicken breasts and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated chicken on the grill. Grill each breast for about 6-7 minutes on each side until cooked through.
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and sauté them for about 5-7 minutes until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine the heavy cream, remaining minced garlic, soy sauce, and any leftover marinade in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until heated through.
- Remove the chicken from the grill, slice it into bite-sized pieces, and assemble the bowls with sautéed broccoli, sliced chicken, and creamy garlic sauce.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
Marinate the chicken for several hours for more flavor and store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
