RECIPE FOR CHICKEN AND BROCOLLI RECIPES

Steps:

• Cook the chicken breasts for 20 minutes in a deep sided large casserole at 350F or Gas 4
• While chicken is part cooking mix throughly all the sauce ingredients
• When the chicken has been cooking for 20 minutes arrange the frozen brocolli around the chicken in the casserole.
• Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken breasts and brocolli and sprinkle with the grated cheese.
• Place back into the oven for a further 40 minutes or until golden brown. Enjoy with baby new potatoes and peas and carrotts.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, toss the chicken with the scallion whites, sugar, sesame oil, sherry, soy sauce, about half the garlic, half the ginger, 1 teaspoon of the cornstarch and 1 teaspoon salt. Marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes. Mix the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/3 cup water in a small bowl and reserve.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil and heat. Add the broccoli stems and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the florets and the remaining garlic and ginger, 2 tablespoons water, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some black pepper. Stir-fry until the broccoli is bright green but still crisp, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Get the skillet good and hot again, and then heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the chicken and red pepper flakes if using. Stir-fry until the chicken loses its raw color and gets a little brown, about 3 minutes. Add the hoisin sauce, return the broccoli to the pan and toss to heat through. Stir in the reserved cornstarch mixture and bring to a boil to thicken. Add more water if need to thin the sauce, if necessary. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if you like. 
• Mound the stir-fry on a serving platter or divide among 4 plates and garnish with sesame seeds; serve with rice.
