Ingredients

• DRAPER VALLEY FARMS Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast Tenders 1 lb (feeds 1 adult + 2 kids) $8.49/lb
• Simple Truth Organic® Broccoli and Cauliflower 1 bag (16 oz) $4.89 (16 oz)
• Organic Garlic (or Simple Truth Organic® Garlic Bulbs) 2 cloves, minced (or 1 clove for very mild) $2.79/3 ct
• Soy sauce 2 tbsp (use low-sodium if you have it)
• Maple syrup 1 1/2 tbsp
• Olive oil (or neutral oil) 2 tsp
• Water 3 tbsp
• Cornstarch (optional, for a slightly thicker glaze) 1 tsp
• Black pepper a pinch
• Optional starch: rice or potatoes 2 cups cooked rice OR 1 lb potatoes

Instructions

1. Optional starch: Start rice or roast/microwave potatoes so everything finishes together.
2. Mix glaze: In a small cup, stir soy sauce + maple syrup + water. If you want it to cling more (kids usually like this), whisk in cornstarch until smooth.
3. Cook chicken: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high with oil. Add chicken tenders in a single layer; cook 2–3 minutes per side until golden and 165°F. Transfer to a plate.
4. Cook veggies: In the same skillet, add broccoli/cauliflower plus 2 tbsp water and a pinch of salt. Cover 2 minutes to steam, then uncover and cook 3–5 minutes until tender-crisp.
5. Finish: Lower heat to medium. Add garlic; stir 20–30 seconds. Pour in glaze and simmer 30–90 seconds until glossy (and thickened if using cornstarch). Add chicken back and toss to coat.
6. Serve: Plate veggies and chicken. Give kids more veg + chicken; give the adult a bigger portion and add rice/potatoes if desired.
