Chicken & Broccoli Stir-Fry

So, this past January I started on WW (formerly Weight Watchers) and I lost 17% of my body weight! I owe so much to this program, and I finally feel like myself again! Not only did I lose weight on WW, but I also found a new lifestyle of eating. For dinner meals, I've been trying to stick to some form of chicken or seafood, a vegetable, and a small amount of a whole grain side dish. I love it and I have never felt better!

The recipe that I am posting has been a weekly staple and a game-changer at only a few WW points per serving! It reheats SO well for lunch, and you can really throw in whatever veggie you like and have on hand. Even my 3 year old likes this!! Trust me...make it! You'll be glad you did :)

Total Time: 30 minutes

Yield: 3 servings
WW Green Points per serving: 6

Ingredients:

Marinade: 

• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 Tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 egg white

Sauce:

• 1 small can low sodium chicken broth (approx. 14 1/2 oz.)​
• 3 Tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 Tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 Tablespoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Additional Ingredients:

• 1 pound chicken tenders, cut into bite-sized pieces
• 1 head of broccoli, cut into pieces
• 1 small red pepper, cut into small strips
• Olive oil

​Directions:

1. Mix the marinade ingredients and add the chicken. Stir to coat well. Add a Tablespoon of oil to a large frying pan and heat over medium heat. Cook the chicken in the oil until cooked through. Remove to a bowl and cover.
2. While the chicken is cooking, mix together all sauce ingredients and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add the broccoli and red pepper and cook over medium heat. You may want to add a splash of water to allow the veggies to steam. Once the veggies are crisp-tender, add the sauce and bring to a boil. Cook until thickened and add the chicken. 
4. Serve with rice and enjoy!!
