Vegetables

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

Carbohydrates

Sauce and Seasonings

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  5. Add Sauce: Mix in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of chili paste, stirring well to evenly coat the chicken and broccoli with the spicy garlic sauce.

  8. Serve: Serve the spicy garlic chicken and broccoli noodle bowl hot for immediate enjoyment.
