Stir Fry Broccoli Chicken

Weekend is around the corner and I'm craving a spicy but quick recipe for my brunch menu. Something mouth watering but absolutely easy and what can be easier than a 'Stir Fry Broccoli Chicken'. Both broccoli and chicken cook really quick if in thin slices and the best part about stir fry's are that you can add whatever you want. So I'm going to make an asian style version with soy, ginger and few other seasoning but feel free to experiment with your choice of ingredients.

The sauce I've made is very basic and can be combined with any vegetable, meat or no-meat ingredient. It is best enjoyed with a bowl of steamed rice (white or brown) or plain noodles but you can serve it with choice of bread or any side.

Here's the recipe and wish you all a Fab Weekend !
