Description
A cozy bowl filled with grilled chicken and broccoli, smothered in a creamy garlic sauce—a perfect weeknight dinner!
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 soy sauce, minced garlic, and lemon juice, then add the chicken breasts. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Grill the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
- While the chicken is grilling, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the broccoli florets for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender but still vibrant green.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the heavy cream, remaining minced garlic, soy sauce, and any leftover marinade. Gently heat through until warmed.
- Once the chicken is grilled, slice it into strips. To assemble your bowls, place sautéed broccoli at the bottom, layer sliced chicken on top, and drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over everything. Serve immediately!
Notes
Make-ahead by marinating chicken the night before. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
