Does it come out quite soft through ought as if you were to boil it?


nah, make sure to give each piece some space on the sheet or tray you're using. spray on some EVOO and it actually comes out charred depending on how long you keep it in there.

There's no doubt though that broc is gonna broc, so unless eaten right away (assuming this is for weekly meal prep) it's going to feel the same as boiled, but taste better imo.

Cube chicken breast

Put in pan with Frank's red hot and Italian dressing and let it cook down low and slow . Turn heat up really high for last minute to get a nice crust

I'm sure tastes good.
Way to much sugar though.

I recently discovered sriracha and it's the bomb. funny thing I thought of pairing it with some sweet chili sauce, but the ones I found have way too much sugars so I am postponing this for now.

Another thing to cover the taste or lack of is jalapenos for me. I can eat boiled chicken breast with only salt if I pair it with some jalapenos.

Hey all!

So I'm on the path of trying to eat a bit healthier and I'd like to lean into my love of broccoli on this.
It's the one vegetable I can literally eat every single day of my life for every meal. For realzies.
My problem is that I tend to like it with lots of sauces or unhealthy things added for fast food means and I'd like to break away from that.
I'd like to find some good recipes to cook chicken/broccoli with in stir fry or other means for a lunch and dinner, something that isn't a immediate jump to healthy basic grilled broccoli and oven roasted chicken but a good step forward in the right direction.
The means for this would be to try and incorporate a meal I find tasty and easy enough to prepare for lunch/dinner, meal prepping would be a huge plus as well.
I've had boiled broccoli with seasoned oven roasted chicken and sure, that's a fantastic dinner item, but if I can't mix that up in other ways to enjoy it then I'd eventually crave those unhealthy sauces and otherwise.
Let me know your dishes and thoughts as I'd love to hear them! Remember, it's not a fight for the healthiest dish but rather dishes to help start on the track of being healthier versus things like fast food and such.

Appreciate your thoughts and experiences!
