This one was such a hit with the entire family - I made it twice in one week. The first time, I used asparagus. The second time, I used broccoli. All good stuff! This recipe fed my family of four - adjust for yourself, as needed.

Tasty Ginger Chicken

4-6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
1 1/2 TBS Olive Oil
1 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 large portobello mushrooms, thinly sliced (or 4-6 regular mushrooms)
1 chopped green onion
Salt, to taste
Ground pepper, to taste.

Heat a skillet on the stove - add 1 tablespoon olive oil and the ginger. Add in chicken and cook for 4 minutes, stiring them around in the pan constantly, and flipping regularly. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside on a plate.

Put remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in hot pan and add your vegetable (I’ve used asparagus and broccoli for this recipe). Stir fry for 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Then add in mushrooms and onions and stir fry for another 3 minutes - or until mushrooms look well-cooked.

Set burner to a medium-to-low setting and add the chicken back into the pan, on top of the vegetable and mushrooms. Cook for another 5 minutes, or until the chicken is completely done (I test for doneness the tried and true way - - slice open the center and check for raw meat!) Don’t mind the pictures - - I took them during this process and I am the world’s sloppiest cook!

We had this meal with a small side of Ceasar salad with a few slices of romaine tomatoes, and non-fat Ceasar dressing. It’s really good!

The approximate count on this entire meal - chicken, broccoli and side ceasar salad w/ tomatoes and non-fat ceasar dressing - based on Calorie King’s calculations of my meal?
