Instructions
- Step 1: Cut 12 oz chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and season with 1/2 tsp sea salt. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add chicken, and cook for 5-6 minutes until golden and cooked through.
- Step 2: Add 2 cups broccoli florets to the skillet, stirring to coat in oil. Cook for 3 minutes until vibrant green, then pour in 1/2 cup coconut milk and 1 tbsp minced ginger. Simmer for 4 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
- Step 3: Stir in 1 tbsp lime juice and continue cooking for 1 more minute until chicken is fully tender. Check internal temperature to ensure it reaches 165°F.
- Step 4: Remove from heat and let rest for 3 minutes before serving. The sauce should coat the chicken evenly without being runny.
