I love the simple recipes like this one, made with simple ingredients and with few tools. One can enjoy getting involved in the kitchen, but there are days when putting a tasty and healthy dish on the table with minimal effort is a priority.
This stir fry chicken, broccoli and dates It is a quick option for lunch or dinner. A light dish with a very interesting contrast of flavors thanks to the spiciness of the chicken and the sweetness of the dates. Dates that you can substitute for raisins or even figs if you have them more at hand.
To prepare it you will only need a frying pan and of course the ingredients. Personally, we like blanch the broccoli three minutes before sautéing it, but you can choose not to do it or extend the cooking time. It will depend on the texture you want to achieve. Shall we start?
