Chicken, Broccoli, and Cashew Stir-Fry
3 cup small broccoli florets with short stems
2 large carrots, cut into thin diagonal slices (2 cups)
5-oz soba noodles
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
3 large cloves garlic, minced
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (6-oz each), sliced crosswise
1 Tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
3 medium scallions, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
1/2 cup reduced-sodium, fat-free chicken broth
1/2 cup raw, unsalted cashews
Bring large pot of water to a boil. Add broccoli, carrots, and noodles. Cover and cook until vegetables are crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain, transfer to medium bowl and cover loosely with wax paper. Heat olive oil, ginger, and garlic in wok or large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring, until garlic starts to turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Add chicken, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir-fry 4 to 5 minutes, or until cooked through. Add scallions and stir-fry 1 minute. Stir in noodles, veggies, and broth and heat through. Sprinkle each portion with 2 tablespoons of the cashews (I sometimes add the cashews during cooking).
