P-NUTTY CHICKEN & BROCCOLI STIR FRY


1-1/2 lbs. boneless chicken breast, cut into cubes
1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce

Sauce:
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
2 Tbsp. low-sodium soy sauce
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
1/4 tsp. ginger
1 Tbsp. cornstarch

Using a very sharp knife and a cutting board, cut the chicken breasts into cube sized pieces.  In a large deep-sided skillet, sauté chicken and garlic in olive oil for about 4-5 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. (Lightly salt & pepper chicken when you start to sauté.)  Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken broth and 1 Tbsp. of soy sauce.  Stir to blend with chicken and bring to a simmer.   Add the broccoli florets; cover and simmer until broccoli is tender to taste.  (4-7 minutes)  While this is simmering, mix sauce ingredients in a small bowl with a wire whisk.  Add to skillet and mix through the chicken & broccoli; simmer until sauce thickens.
