Sweet and Sour Chicken With Broccoli
Active Time: 20 minutes Total Time: 20 minutes- 3 ounces dry ramen noodles
- 1 tablespoon canola or avocado oil
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 6 cups small broccoli florets (about 12 ounces)
- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
- 3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Crush noodles and spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring once, until lightly browned, 7 to 9 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Add orange juice to the pan and cook, scraping up any browned bits, for 15 seconds. Add broccoli; cover and cook until tender, about 3 minutes.
Whisk vinegar, soy sauce, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
Add the vinegar mixture, honey, garlic, crushed red pepper, and salt to the pan; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sauce is thickened, about 1 minute. Add the chicken and cook for 1 minute more. Top with the ramen noodles.
