Creamy Chicken and Broccoli Skillet
3 servings; per serving:
1 leaner, 1 healthy fat, 2 greens, 3 condiments
Ingredients:
27 oz Raw Chicken breast ~Yields 18 oz cooked (3 leaners)
1 tbsp olive oil divided (3 healthy fats)
1/4 tsp ground pepper to taste (1/2 condiment)
1/8 tsp sea salt (1/2 condiment)
1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (1/2 condiment)
4 cloves garlic minced (4 condiments)
1 1/2 cup almond milk (1 1/2 condiments)
1 tbsp almond flour (1 1/2 condiments)
3 cups (9.3 oz) broccoli head chopped (6 greens)
2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (1/2 condiment)
Lemon wedges, optional
Directions:
Rub the chicken with the seasonings on all sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until golden-brown and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
In a small bowl, whisk the almond milk and flour until smooth.
To the same pan, heat the remaining oil, over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for up to 1 minute.
Pour in the almond milk mixture and stir; you should see the sauce getting thicker almost immediately as it heats up.
Add broccoli and cook for 6-8 minutes, or just until tender. Return the chicken back to the pan and continue to cook for a couple of minutes to heat up.
Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon wedges, if desired.
