Instructions

  • To make the sauce, whisk the coconut aminos, broth, vinegar, coconut sugar, seasonings, and arrowroot starch together and set aside.
  • Using a large pan, heat the avocado oil over medium heat. Add the broccoli and lightly season with salt and pepper. Saute for 5-6 minutes or until crisped to your liking. Set aside.
  • Add the ground chicken to the pan along with more avocado oil if needed. Season with salt and pepper and crumble the chicken until cooked through.
  • Add the broccoli back to the pan and pour the sauce mixture in. Stir for 1-2 minutes to allow the sauce to reduce. See notes for adjusting sauce thickness.

Notes

  • For a thinner sauce- Simply add 1-2 tbsp of more chicken broth if you like a thinner sauce!
  • For a thicker sauce- Combine 1 tsp of arrowroot starch with about 1 tbsp of broth and whisk. Add to the pan and simmer for a few minutes to thicken the sauce.
