### Tips * To save time, use pre-cut broccoli florets. * If you don't have garlic sauce, you can make your own by combining 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. * To make the chicken more flavorful, marinate it in the garlic sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking. * If you don't have a steamer, you can boil the broccoli florets in a pot of water for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender. * To make the sauce thicker, add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the pan and stir until the sauce has thickened. * Serve the chicken and broccoli with rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish. ### Conclusion This easy chicken with broccoli and garlic sauce recipe is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a busy weeknight.
