Ginger-Sesame Chicken and Spinach

Posted on July 6, 2011. Filed under: Main Dishes |

This is a recipe I tried for the first time tonight.  It is quick and has a very nice flavor.  I served it over steamed rice.

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 lb chicken breast
  • 2 tbs fresh grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 – (6 oz) pkg fresh baby spinach
  • 2 tbs sesame oil
  • 1 tbs sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbs cornstarch or arrowroot (optional)

Dice the chicken and start it cooking with the ginger.  I think I had closer to 2 lbs of chicken.

In another pot heat the garlic, spinach, oil, sesame seeds, and chicken broth.  Cook until the spinach is wilted.

Add the chicken to the spinach and heat through.  Add arrowroot (or cornstarch) to thicken the sauce slightly.

Serve over steamed rice.

    While I am not removing my previous posts, my focus has changed since I started this blog. After tipping the scale at 200 lbs in 2016, I decided it was time for a change. I joined Weight Watchers and lost 75 lbs. I have created many tasty, low point recipes that I hope will help others.
