A spicy Asian dish serves well over rice. You can omit the broccoli and use whatever fresh veggies you have on hand. You can substitute chicken broth for vegetable broth. And use firm Tofu instead of chicken breasts for a great vegetarian dish. It was excellent! Courtesy of Teri Hogan, TX - Cooking Pleasures magazine.
