Chicken and broccoli, or broccoli chicken, is an American Chinese dish.
History
Chicken and broccoli developed in Chinese restaurants of the United States where it became widely popular, and is not based on authentic Chinese cuisine.[1][2]
Preparation
The dish is prepared by stir frying blanched broccoli florets and seared pieces of chicken breast.[3] The chicken is often velveted to tenderize it.[4] The stir fry typically includes a "brown sauce" made with oyster sauce, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and Shaoxing wine.[5][6][7] Some recipes substitute Shaoxing wine with sherry.[8]
