I love chinese food, but it's so unhealthy! I found a recipe on the "Cheap, Healthy, Good" blog, and have modified it over many times of making it until I now have it perfect. I use half the sweetener and half the cornstarch and I find it tastes just as good! This is in no way authentically Chinese, but it does satisfy my craving for take-out! I make it with sauteed vegetables, sometimes shrimp too, over brown rice.

How Do I Make Light Chinese Chicken and Broccoli Sauce?

Here is how you make Light Chinese Chicken and Broccoli Sauce:

The nutritional info for this recipe is just for the sauce, so you put it over whatever you like. First, prepare the sauce by mixing all ingredients in a cup or small bowl. Then begin sauteeing your veggies (and meat if you want) in a teaspoon of oil per serving. I use peanut oil for this, to stick with the "Asian" flavor, but any kind of oil you like for sauteeing should be fine. Once the veggies (and/or meat) are almost done, pour the sauce over them. Stir as it comes to a simmer, and simmer for a minute or two until the sauce reaches your desired thickness. Remove from heat. Spoon over brown rice (I use 1/4 cup dry per person - 150 calories each) and enjoy! Serving Size: Makes enough sauce for 2-3 servings, depending how saucy you like your food!
