Keto Chinese Chicken and Broccoli – Important Tips

Sweetener – Use any brown sugar substitute, the best is the brown sugar substitute by Swerve with no bitter aftertaste.

Broccoli – When using frozen broccoli, thaw completely so that it does add up any extra water or moisture. Or, it’s always best to use fresh broccoli florets.

Soy sauce – You can use any low carb soy sauce, for gluten-free, substitute it with Liquid Aminos

Chicken – For these types of keto chinese recipes, always use boneless skinless chicken thighs for any extra fatty flavors and juicy chicken. Boneless skinless chicken breasts will also work. Avoid using bone-in chicken as it will not evenly soak up the sauce.

Xanthan Gum – Use thickeners like xanthan to thicken the sauce as per your liking, add a little at a time or it will overly thicken the sauce very fast. Add more liquid to thin out the sauce or as you prefer.

How to store this low carb chinese chicken and broccoli stir fry?

Pack the leftovers and store them in the refrigerator for 2 days, and reheat them for a quick lunch or dinner, but the broccoli bite will not be the same. In a freezer-friendly bag, store the remaining chicken and broccoli. Squeeze any extra air out and freeze for up to 3 months. The texture of the broccoli will change after being frozen.

How to serve this keto chinese chicken and broccoli?

It’s great to serve with steamed rice, cauliflower rice, or lightly sautéed zucchini noodles.
