Method

  1. Sauté chicken and garlic until just cooked in a non-stick frypan that has been generously coated with cooking spray. Remove from pan to be added back later.
  2. Wash frypan then add water and broccoli, cook for 3 minutes. Add shallots and cook 1 minute.
  3. Combine soup powder with milk, add to pan, stir until boiling. Add parmesan and tomatoes, combine well.
  4. Add chicken back to pan. Once boiled take off heat as evaporated milk can separate when over boiled. Pepper to taste.

NOTE: Serve with Basmati rice, cooked potato or pasta. Not included in nutritional information below.

Variations: Replace chicken with 250g butterfly pork steaks dice or firm boneless fish diced

Suitable to be frozen for 2-3 weeks.

Dietitian's tip

Broccoli, like its fellow cruciferous vegetables such as kale and cabbage, has a reputation as a superfood. It is low in kilojoules but contains loads of nutrients and antioxidants that will support your health.
