I have some chicken beast thawing and i was thinking chicken with broccoli chinese style. Anyone has a recipe? Thanks.
 
Just substitute chicken for the beef and chicken stock or broth for the beef stock or broth:

INGREDIENTS:
  • 3/4 to 1 lb pkg beef for stir fry, or thinly sliced flank steak
  • 1 Tbs Cornstarch
    [*]1 Tbs Rice wine
  • 3 to 5 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 bunch green onions or scallions, chopped
  • 1 Lb Broccoli cut into florets
  • 2 Tbs Oyster sauce
  • 1 Tbs Soy sauce
  • 2 Tbs Water
  • 4 Tbs sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated ginger root
  • 1/3 Cup beef stock or broth
Sauce:
  • 1 tb Soy sauce
  • 1 Tbs Rice wine
  • 1 tb Cornstarch
DIRECTIONS:

Dissolve the cornstarch in the 2 Tbs water, then add rice wine and soy sauce,. Marinate the beef in this mixture for at least 1 hour.

In a wok or large skillet, stir fry the marinated beef in 2 Tbs sesame oil until just barely browned. Do not overcook. Remove the beef from the skillet and put aside. Wipe out the wok and return to heat. Add another 2 Tbs sesame oil and heat. Add the garlic, onion, oyster sauce, and ginger And allow to cook in oil for about 1 minute. Add the broccoli and stir fry for about 1 minute, then add the 1/3 cup broth, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Combine the soy sauce, rice wine and cornstarch to make a sauce. Remove the cover, and add the almost cooked beef into the broccoli. Add the sauce, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens and the beef and broccoli are fully cooked.

This is an interesting way to cook chicken. I use linguine for my dish.

  • 1 packet of linguine
  • 2 carrots (shredded)
  • 1 lb chicken breasts fillet (halved)
  • 3 cups broccoli (florets)
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup chilli sauce
  • 2 clove garlic (minced)
  • 4 scallions (sliced)
  • 1/2 tsp ginger (ground)
  • Cook linguine according to package instructions till al dente
  • Drain, transfer to a large bowl and set aside
  • In another bowl, add orange juice, soy sauce, chili sauce, oil, garlic and ginger
  • Measure out 1/4 cup of the mixture and set aside
  • Add remaining mixture, scallions and carrots to linguine and toss to coat
  • In a large bowl, toss broccoli with 2 tbsp of reserved mixture
  • Thread broccoli onto 8 skewers
  • Brush remaining mixture over chicken
  • Grill chicken on grill for 8 to 10 mins or till cooked
  • Remove from grill, add broccoli adn grill for 5 mins
  • Cut chicken into strips, transfer bowl with linguine
  • Remove brocooli from skewers and transfer to bowl as well
