Soup with Cheddar and broccoli

Posted on October 4, 2012 by janice Broccoli-Cheddar Soup soup with Cheddar and broccoli

I mean simple.  This soup was ahead of me in less than half an hour.  Well, I made my own chicken broth, but it's because I had nothing better to do with my time.  And it's really cool because you can control the amount of sodium that is-EC/do not in va!  Another low sodium broth, you need some veggies, a little milk and some cheese fat free!  That's it!  Picture probably does justice.  You know, the soup is really hard to photograph!

SOUP WITH CHEDDAR AND BROCCOLI

4 cups of broccoli bouquets
4 cups low sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup fat-free milk
1/2 cup fat free, grated cheddar

Bring the broth chicken and broccoli to simmer and cover.  Cook for 20 minutes.  Remove from heat and add milk and cheddar.  Using a blender or mixer immersion, puree until smooth.  Taste for salt and pepper and season accordingly.  Enjoy now!

Chicken and Broccoli Deviled Eggs

Posted September 20, 2012 By janice Chicken and Broccoli Deviled Eggs Chicken and Broccoli Deviled Eggs

What to do with leftover chicken?

CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI DEVILED EGGS

4 boiled eggs, yolks removed and cut in half lengthwise
1 cup broccoli florets, steamed
1 boneless, skinless chicken thigh
1 small plum tomato, seeded and finely diced
1 green onion, finely chopped
smoked paprika
salt and pepper
onion powder
Dukan or fat free mayonnaise

I had made this dish and found myself with leftover chicken and broccoli.  I simply mashed the egg yolks, added some finely chopped chicken and broccoli, tomato and green onion and moistened it with a little mayonnaise.  I seasoned mine with paprika, salt and pepper and some onion powder.  Get creative!  Then I spooned the mixture into a little plastic bag and cut off the tip of it and piped it into the egg whites.  Cute, eh?  And a super simple way of getting rid of those leftovers!

Chicken and broccoli pasta

Chicken and Broccoli PastaChicken and broccoli pasta

Really, I wanted to pulp the other night and thought that I would find better a good and healthy to.  Hodgson Mill makes the best wheat whole egg pasta.  They taste very granular like other brands and I like the egg noodles.  I found mine at the regular grocery store and I found on Amazon.com too!  They are delicious!  If you are not in the building yet, just use Shirataki noodles or use the Spiralizer and make the zucchini noodles as we have in the last post!

Boil noodles as prepare you your chicken.  Sprinkle of smoked paprika, onion powder and salt and pepper on your chicken.  Fry the chicken in a pan at medium heat for 7-9 minutes each side or until completely cooked.  Add broccoli noodles in the last minutes of cooking time.  Drain, reserving some fluid of cooking.  Remove the chicken from the Pan and he chop rough.  Add noodles, broccoli and chicken in the hot pan and stir.  You have to use the noodle cooking liquid to add moisture to the dish.  I used about half a Cup.

Chicken and broccoli

Posted on February 15, 2012 by Janice chicken and broccoli

I couldn't get enough of this dish.  I had to immediately wrap a part of it for lunch or I would have eaten the entire thing!  Obviously, you can do this with boneless chicken breast, I am just a big fan of thighs.  If you use the chest, book it a little so it is the same thickness when you're cooking so you only cook parts of it.  Enjoy!

CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI

4 chicken thighs
2 cups broccoli
2 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 cup beef broth
Oyster sauce 1 T
t low sodium soy sauce 1
1/2 t of Splenda
1/2 t red pepper flakes
Cornstarch T 1 mixed with 1 t water

Brown the chicken legs in a little spray in a pan of cooking.  About 5 minutes on each side.  Remove and set aside.  Add broccoli to skillet and cook for 3 minutes, add the garlic to the last minute.  Add the broth of beef, oysters and soy sauces, Splenda and the red pepper flakes.  Add the chicken to the Pan and stir in the cornstarch mixture.  Cook for a further 10-15 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened.
