  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  1. 1. Prepare the Marinade: Whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, and honey in a medium bowl.

  4. 4. Steam the Broccoli: While the chicken grills, steam broccoli florets until bright green and tender-crisp (about 5 minutes).
  5. 5. Assemble Bowls: Slice grilled chicken into bite-sized pieces and layer with steamed broccoli in bowls. Drizzle with remaining marinade.
  6. 6. Serve: Enjoy as is or garnish with sesame seeds or sliced green onions.
