Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry (VIDEO)

The sauce in this broccoli chicken stir fry is perfectly “saucy,” making it ideal for serving over steamy white rice. Homemade Chicken and Broccoli is an easy 30-minute meal and it has the best stir fry sauce.

Chicken Broccoli Mushroom Stir Fry:

Chicken and Broccoli Stir Fry satisfies the craving for takeout and you’ll feel good about serving this to your family because it’s healthier than going out. If you loved our Beef and Broccoli, then you will love this chicken stir fry. It’s loaded with tender chicken, mushrooms and fresh broccoli. I hope you’re inspired to make this easy and tasty dinner!

Ingredients & Substitutions for Stir Fry:

  • Chicken – we used boneless skinless chicken breast, but chicken tenders or even thighs would be delicious here.
  • Stir Fry Veggies – We love the combination of broccoli, onions, and mushrooms for an authentic Chicken Broccoli Stir fry. You could sub the broccoli with snap peas or zucchini and sub onions with julienned carrots.
  • Chicken Broth – this adds more flavor, but water can easily be substituted.
  • Low Sodium Soy Sauce – Since different brands have different amounts of salt, add soy sauce to taste. You can always add more at the end, but you can’t take salt out of a dish. For gluten-free, use Tamari sauce.
  • Sesame Oil – this one ingredient gives the sauce authentic Chinese stir fry flavor. Do not skip it.
  • Ginger & Garlic – fresh is best for stir fry, but in a pinch, you can substitute 1 tsp fresh garlic for 1/2 tsp garlic powder and substitute 1 tsp fresh ginger for 1/8-1/4 tsp ground ginger.
  • Brown Sugar – we used 2 Tablespoons of packed light brown sugar. You can substitute with 1 1/2 Tbsp to 2 Tbsp of liquid sweetener like honey, or add it to taste.
  • Corn Starch – using cornstarch as a thickener helps keep this gluten-free.

Pro Tip: It’s easiest to peel fresh ginger using the edge of a teaspoon. Simply scrape the skin away. Try it – it’s so easy.

How to Make Broccoli and Chicken Stir Fry:

  1. Make the Sauce: Combine all of the sauce ingredients and stir to dissolve the sugar. The warm broth will help the sugar to dissolve easily.
  2. Cook Chicken: Cut chicken into small 3/4″ bite-sized pieces and season lightly with black pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat with 1 Tbsp oil. Add chicken and cook 1 minute undisturbed then stir fry 5 minutes until golden and just cooked through. Remove chicken to a bowl.
  3. Sautee Veggies: In the same skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 Tbsp oil, broccoli florets, sliced onion and mushrooms and stir fry 3 minutes until mushrooms are softened then reduce heat.
  4. Add Stir Fry Sauce: Give the sauce a quick stir in case there was settling and add it to the skillet. Simmer the sauce over medium/low heat for 3-4 minutes until thickened and garlic and ginger have mellowed in flavor. To thin the sauce, add water as needed and you can add more soy sauce to taste.
  5. Return Chicken to the Pan and stir until heated through then serve over white rice garnished with sesame seeds if desired.

The KEY to Cooking Stir Fry:

A stir fry is essentially flash cooked on a very hot skillet (less than 15 minutes of cooking time). Since this recipe moves fast, you want to have every ingredient chopped, measured, prepped and ready to use before you fire up the skillet. If serving with white rice, you’ll want to put the rice on the stove first then cook your stir fry. You’ll want to bookmark our tutorial for Perfect White Rice.

Chicken and broccoli stir fry in skillet garnished with sesame seeds
The sauce in this stir fry is perfectly "saucy," making it ideal for serving over hot and fluffy white rice. This recipe moves fast so start cooking your rice first and be sure to prep and chop all of your stir fry ingredients and make the sauce before cooking the stir fry.
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes

Ingredients 

Servings: 4 people

Chicken and Broccoli:

  • 1 lb chicken breast, (boneless skinless), cut into 3/4" pieces
  • 2 Tbsp cooking oil, (I used extra light olive oil), divided
  • 1 lb broccoli, cut into florets (about 5 cups)
  • 1 small yellow onion, sliced into strips
  • 1/2 lb white button mushrooms, thickly sliced

Stir Fry Sauce Ingredients:

  • 2/3 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • 3 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce, (use Tamari for gluten free), or added to taste
  • 2 Tbsp light brown sugar, packed (or honey to taste)
  • 1 Tbsp corn starch
  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, peeled and grated (lightly packed)
  • 1 tsp garlic (2 small cloves), grated
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper, plus more to season chicken

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, combine all of the sauce ingredients and whisk to dissolve sugar and corn starch (warm broth will help dissolve the sugar faster). Set sauce aside.
  • Cut chicken into small bite-sized pieces (no more than 3/4” thick) and season lightly with pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 Tbsp oil. Add chicken in a single layer and let it sit undisturbed for 1 minute to get a good sear then stir fry for another 5 minutes or until golden brown just cooked through then remove to a bowl and loosely cover to keep warm. 
  • In the same skillet, add another 1 Tbsp oil along with broccoli florets, sliced onion and sliced mushrooms. Stir fry 3 minutes or until mushrooms are softened and broccoli is crisp-tender then reduce heat to medium/low.
  • Give the sauce a quick stir in case there was any settling of starch and pour all of it over the vegetables. Simmer 3-4 minutes or until sauce is thickened and garlic and ginger are mellowed in flavor. To thin the sauce, add water a tablespoon at a time.
  • Return chicken to the pan and stir another 30 seconds or until heated through. Add more soy sauce to taste if needed and serve over hot rice.

      Hello Venessa! I haven’t tested it with cornstarch but it may work to just toss the chicken in cornstarch, I’m just not sure how much of the remaining cornstarch you would want to add because 1/4 cup would probably make the sauce too thick. I hope that helps!

    I have made this recipe several times and I am in love with it! I have always added the sesame oil. I think it adds so much flavor. If you have difficulties with the sauce thickening, you can always add a slurry of 1tsp. Cornstarch mixed with 1 tsp water. Next time I make this, I want to add some carrots!

The best woks are hand hammered carbon steel (must be seasoned) that are thicker on the bottom with the metal becoming slightly thinner toward the upper part. I have both round and flat bottom woks (3 total) I use on my gas range.

      “Baby Bella” ‘shrooms are the same as “crimini,” as they are known in Italy. Also, they are the same species as the white ‘shrooms we buy in the US, just a bit more mature and perhaps exposed to a bit of light. If allowed to mature more, then they become “Portobello” ‘shrooms. All in all, they are all “Agaricus bisporus.”

      Hi Astyn, it is difficult to say but I am always happy to help troubleshhoot. If your previous tests worked better than the third one, I would suspect an ingredient is the culprit – maybe mis-measuring something or using low sodium soy sauce instead of regular (you would need more salt in that case), or maybe using frozen broccoli or partially defrosted broccoli or chicken which would add water to the recipe. I hope that helps!

      Hi Mary, the nutrition label is based on 6 servings so if you are serving it as 3 servings, I would double everything on the nutrition label. I haven’t measured this recipe by cups of the finished product. It is meant to be served over rice and typically serves 4 to 6 people depending on how hungry your crew is 🙂

    Good recipe, but I’m saddened that you sound dismissive about all the darker (and much tastier) meat over chicken breast. There’s nothing so special about chicken breast, and I usually find it tastes worse, especially with these over-sized breasts in stores now days (vs. what we used to get about 20 years ago).

      Hi Linda, I’m not sure what you are referring to about being dismissive about chicken thighs? Maybe you mis-read something? I love using well-trimmed chicken thighs for the more flavorful meat and actually prefer it for many recipes – it would be a good substitute here if you prefer it.

    Wondering if you think boneless chicken thighs would work well in this recipe?

      Hi Andi, yes! I think that would work great. Thigh meat is my chicken meat of choice – it just takes a little longer to trim off the excess fat from chicken thighs.

    Tasty! I made this once before and it didn’t turn out well. I have since learned to pay a tad more attention to the directions 😉 the chicken was tender and veggies were drenched in yummy sauce. I used frozen veggies and it still turned out great, maybe a tad watery but still very good. We all had a second helping. Oh and it was great paired with buckwheat.

    Okay, I read through the directions again and figured it out. The dish was delicious! I had a couple of unexpected guests so I needed something quick and easy and it fit the bill. Everyone loved it. Will make again.
    Didn’t have fresh ginger so I used powdered. Also added it and turmeric to the flour. Plus, threw in about 1/3 c. of orange juice that was going to expire. Oh, and used scallion + shallot for the onion. That’s why this recipe is perfect!

    This looks great, but I’m confused about the amount of flour. Step one says to coat chicken in 1/4 cup flour, then for the sauce it says use the remaining flour, but the ingredient list says just 1/4 cup. So, how much flour goes in the sauce?

      Hi Kerry, sorry that wasn’t super clear. I clarified in the recipe but I meant the remaining flour that was used to coat the chicken. I just add the rest of the ingredients to the same bowl after coating and removing the chicken.

          Hi Judit, I haven’t tested it with anything different but you could probably use a good baking gluten free flour. I haven’t tested it with cornstarch either but that may also work to toss the chicken in cornstarch, I’m just not sure how much of the remaining cornstarch you would want to add because 1/4 cup would probably make the sauce too thick.

    We had this for dinner tonight. For my broccoli disliking family, I used roughly 7.5 cups of veggies (broccoli, carrot sticks, green and red bell pepper, mushrooms, baby bok choy and green onions). I followed the rest of the recipe, cutting 1 tablespoon of EVOO and 1 teaspoon of dark sesame oil. The sauce thickened up beautifully and I mixed some cooked Asian noodles into the pan before serving. We will have again and try with a bit of red chili oil for a kick. Thanks for the great recipe.
