2 cups fresh broccoli florets
4 garlic cloves, minced
¼ cup pure honey
¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce

Blanch broccoli in boiling salted water for 2 minutes; then transfer to ice water to preserve color.
In a skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat and cook marinated chicken until golden brown and cooked through (about 6-8 minutes).
Add cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce; stir in broccoli until coated. Simmer for an additional couple of minutes.
Serve over rice or noodles and garnish with sesame seeds or green onions.
