- ¼ cup flour
- dash of garlic powder

- Coat chopped broccoli in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes.

- Add chicken to a large skillet with a touch of oil. Cook all the way through over medium heat (about 7-10 mins, but test a piece or two).
- While chicken is cooking, mix together sauce ingredients- start with just corn starch and soy sauce, mixing together so the cornstarch can dissolve, then add everything else.
