Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups broccoli florets, with short stems (about 1/2 lb crowns)
2 carrots, cut into thin diagonal slices (2 c)
5 ounces soba noodles
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, sliced crosswise (6 oz each)
1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3 medium scallions, thinly sliced (about 1/2 c)
1/2 cup chicken broth, reduced-sodium, fat-free
1/2 cup cashews, unsalted raw (3 oz)

Steps:

  • Bring large pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli, carrots, and noodles. Cover and cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain, transfer to medium bowl, and cover loosely with wax paper.
  • Heat olive oil, ginger, and garlic in wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until garlic starts to turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chicken, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir-fry 4 to 5 minutes, or until cooked through. Add scallions and stir-fry 1 minute.
  • Stir in noodles, veggies, and broth and heat through. Sprinkle each portion with 2 tablespoons of the cashews.

I tried this recipe and it turned out really well. The only thing I changed was that I used brown rice instead of white rice.

This stir-fry was a hit with my family! The chicken and broccoli were cooked perfectly, and the cashews added a nice crunch. The sauce was flavorful and not too salty. I will definitely be making this again.
