Country Style Chicken and Radish Skillet Dinner
- 1/2 cup chicken or turkey broth OR water (if you’re fasting, for example)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 pound boned and skinned chicken breasts, cut into thin slices
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 1/2 cups sliced radishes (about 1 (6-ounce) bag)
- 2 cups (about 4 ounces) snow peas, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions (scallions)
- Hot cooked rice, for serving (optional)
If serving over rice, prepare the rice.
In a small bowl, combine broth (or water), cornstarch, soy sauce and ginger until smooth; set aside.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over high heat until hot. Add chicken and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, just until chicken is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Remove from skillet; set aside.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil; heat until hot. Stir in radishes, snow peas and green onions; cook and stir for 1 minute; remove from heat.
Return chicken to skillet. Stir broth mixture; pour into skillet and bring to a boil.
Boil and stir until sauce is clear and slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
Serve over hot cooked rice, if desired.
