Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup chicken broth

- 4 cups broccoli florets
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon Grey Poupon Dijon Mustard
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil (such as olive oil or vegetable oil)
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Broth Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the chicken broth and soy sauce. Stir well and set aside.
-
Cook the Vegetables: Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the broccoli florets and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender-crisp and bright green. Remove the vegetables from the skillet and keep them warm.
-
Cook the Chicken: In the same skillet, add the chicken pieces. Cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink and cooked through.
-
Add the Broth Mixture: Pour the prepared chicken broth and soy sauce mixture over the cooked chicken. Stir well to combine.
-
Bring to a Boil: Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil.
-
Simmer and Add Mustard: Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in the Dijon mustard until well combined.
-
Combine with Broccoli: Return the cooked broccoli and garlic mixture to the skillet. Mix everything together gently, ensuring that the broccoli is well coated with the sauce.
-
Heat Through: Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the dish is thoroughly heated.
-
Serve: Enjoy your Chicken and Broccoli Dijon hot, straight from the skillet, or serve over a bed of rice or noodles if desired.
Tip: For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes or a splash of lemon juice to the sauce for a zesty kick.
