Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 11/2 pounds chicken thighs cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1/2 cup low-FODMAP chicken broth
  • 1 orange Grated zest and juice
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 cups broccoli florets cut into bite-size pieces

  • 1/4 cup chopped scallions green parts only
  • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat.
  • Add the chicken, and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until cooked through and browned. Remove from the heat.
  • In a small saucepan, stir together the broth, orange zest and juice, sugar, and soy sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until thickened slightly.
  • Pour the mixture over the chicken in the skillet. Mix well to coat.
  • In a medium pot, combine the broccoli, carrots, and about 1/2 cup water. Place over medium-high heat, and steam for 5 minutes, or until tender. Divide among 4 bowls, and top with the chicken, scallions, and sesame seeds.

Notes

COOKING TIP: To save time, use baby carrots and a bag of prewashed broccoli heads.
FODMAP TIP: Trim off and discard the broccoli stems; use mostly broccoli heads instead, as the stems are higher in FODMAPs.
