I adapted this recipe from one I found on ibreatheimhungry.com. We don’t have broccoli slaw here. I could make my own but I found rainbow salad mix, which is broccoli slaw with a bit of shredded carrot and beetroot (beets). Per 100g broccoli has 7g carbs while carrots and beets each have 10g, so it’s not a big difference, especially given the mix had more broccoli than carrot or beet.

You could add a bit of xanthan gum to thicken the sauce if you like. Add whatever veggies you like — I happened to have broccoli and celery I needed to use up, but the slaw and scallions are all the veggies used in the original recipe. Here’s what I used:

INGREDIENTS:

4 boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut in strips
1 bunch broccoli, sliced thin
2 stalks celery, sliced thin
1 bunch of green onions or scallions, sliced
2 bags (250g / half pound each) broccoli or rainbow slaw
1 cup water
1/2 cup soy sauce, coconut aminos or tamari (low sodium)
2 Tbsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp fresh ginger, minced
2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 Tbsp sugar substitute (optional)

METHOD:

In a large fry pan or wok that’s preheated, add the sesame oil and ginger, then add the chicken and stir fry to brown the chicken (about 3 minutes). Add the water, soy sauce, and seasonings.

If adding broccoli or other veggies that may take more than a few minutes to cook, you can add those now too. Simmer and stir periodically for about 5 minutes. Add the slaw and green onions. Stir fry another 2-3 minutes (don’t overcook as the slaw is sliced very thin). Serve.

Because my slaw mix had beetroot in it, it tinted everything red, but it still tasted delicious. Enjoy! Visit and Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Annas-Kitchen-1686376324950749/
