Ketogenic chicken and broccoli stir fry

For this keto chicken and broccoli recipe, chicken, butter, egg, mayonnaise, broccoli, and sesame ginger dressing are needed. Some seasonings are also required. They are pepper, onion powder, salt, and garlic powder.

First, melt the butter in a sauté pan on a stove. Once the butter melts, stir in raw chicken. Cooked chicken is also okay. Cut the broccoli in tiny pieces and stir it in. Next is seasoning with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. See that the chicken cubes get cooked on every side. After some time, the smell of the seasonings will be evident. When the broccoli and chicken are cooked entirely, pour the mixture in a bowl.

Now, mix mayonnaise and egg for hiding additional fat. In the event of the butter put into the pan before adding chicken not being enough, people can put in more mayonnaise. Pour the mayo and egg mixture in the pan. Once the scrambled egg texture forms, put the broccoli and chicken into the pan and stir. The last step is pouring the sesame ginger dressing for more flavor.

People can use various vegetables in place of broccoli. Some of them are carrots, green beans, and bok choy. An excellent video of making this dish is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=otd1sfp6Nf0.
