Wednesday, September 22, 2010

Need a power lunch? My Asian Broccoli stir-fry alongside any lean protein can be prepared in little time. Take out your stopwatch, and see for yourself!

You’ll need:
Nonfat olive oil cooking spray
2 cups broccoli florets, washed
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon grated gingerroot
¼ cup bottled water
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon sesame oil

To prepare: heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat and coat with cooking spray. Add the broccoli and cook for 2 minutes, stirring. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute. Add the water, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
