I love Chinese food. I've had a love affair with the deep fried, saucy goodness all my life. I guess my dad must have introduced me to Chinese food because I remember that anytime I went to visit him as a kid, I always wanted Chinese food for dinner. Unfortunately, Chinese food is not the best option if you're trying to diet. But I have the solutions: steamed chicken with broccoli (no sauce). Now, I know what you're thinking: "That sounds pretty boring, Stephanie." Ok, maybe you're right. I could probably make my own steamed chicken and broccoli, but it's so much easier to have someone bring it to me. The solution is to make you're own sauce to jazz up what might otherwise be a boring dinner. And here's how it's done:
Ingredients:
1/4 cup vegetable broth
1 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp raw honey (I use Mountain Ridge)
1 packet of Chinese mustard
Directions:
Place ingredients in a small saucepan. Whisk over medium-high heat until evenly combined. Bring to a boil to heat through.
In a shallow bowl, add 1/2 cup of whole wheat brown rice, top with steamed chicken and broccoli and add sauce over entire dish. Delicious!
