27 Reviews of Broccoli Chicken Dijon (south Beach Diet)

From: Dubai Desert Chef

On Jul 7, 2008

Excellent recipe! This recipe recieved rave reviews in my home. The only things I changed are that I added a bit more garlic, and because I was afraid that the garlic would scorch before the broccoli was cooked enough for me, I added a couple of tbs. of water and covered to let it steam for a couple minutes before removing from the skillet. Will definitely be cooking this regularly!

    This was great!! I didn't change much, but I did find I needed to add more oil to cook the chicken. I think this would work better (with less oil) if you steamed the broccoli a bit first. It would even work with frozen broccoli. Excellent recipe. Thanks Mindi.

    Excellent! I cooked the broccoli in the microwave just a couple of minutes before sauteeing just to tenderize it a little. Other than that, we loved it! I've been on South Beach for a week now, and this will be one of our favorites. Thanks Mindi for a keeper!

    I really enjoyed this recipe and my husband would've liked it as is but i found it a bit bland for my taste. i added some celery salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and it perked it right up.

    Shhh...don't tell my husband this was good for him. Delicious! I used 1/3 cup Dijon instead of 2 tablespoons, which was perfect. Also dissolved a little cornstarch (maybe 1 tsp.) in water and stirred in at the end to thicken the sauce just a bit. Definitely a keeper.

    For being a South Beach meal, this wasn't bad. I suggest adding more garlic to give it some more flavor... also, I love when my chicken dishes have a sweet kick to it, so I added some splenda to this dish.

    Great flavor with the dijon mustard. I would definitely serve this over rice (brown rice for the South Beachers) since the sauce is not thick. You could probably add a bit of cornstarch to the broth mixture if you wanted a thicker sauce version. I loved that this was simple and fast to prepare. Thank you!

    We loved it! I used garlic powder instead of garlic clove, and vegetarian chicken. Added some salt and pepper and a little extra dijon and it was delicious!
