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.
Remove from heat and serve topped with green onion.

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.
