Beef & broccoli is one of our favorite stir fried dishes, but when we're trying to cut down on our red meat, we swap out the beef for boneless skinless chicken breasts. Using the slow cooker makes the chicken extra tender and allows the flavors to develop over a couple of hours. The sauce, made simply with soy sauce, sesame oil, and ginger, is one you will turn to again and again again.
This dish is so good we'd be surprised if you had leftovers but if you do, store them in an airtight container and they should last in the fridge for up to 4 days and then 2 to 6 months in the freezer depending.
