The Ultimate Guide to Garlic Chicken with Broccoli and Spinach: A Flavorful, Healthy Delight


  • Author: Hannah

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 3 cups fresh broccoli florets

  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 1/4 cup chicken broth

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

  • Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

Cook Chicken:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken pieces and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6–7 minutes. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

Sauté Garlic and Broccoli:
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add broccoli florets and cook for 4–5 minutes until tender-crisp.

Add Spinach and Sauce:
Add spinach, chicken broth, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until spinach wilts and sauce slightly reduces, about 2 minutes.

Combine and Season:
Return chicken to the skillet and toss everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

 

Serve:
Serve warm as a healthy main dish or over rice or noodles.
