Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups fresh broccoli florets
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons peanut oil
4 large cloves garlic, minced
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger root
1 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
¼ cup canned water chestnuts, drained
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Combine broccoli and water in a glass bowl; steam in microwave oven until slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes.

Reduce heat to low; add chicken broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and ginger root to the garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil and add the shrimp; cook and stir until the shrimp turn pink, 3 to 4 minutes. Toss steamed broccoli and water chestnuts with the shrimp mixture to coat with the sauce. Stir cornstarch into the mixture 1 tablespoon at a time until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
