Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds chicken breast
  • Kosher salt to taste
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tbsp canola divided
  • 1 pound asparagus ends trimmed, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger grated
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Instructions

  • Cut the chicken into 1-inch cubes and season the chicken with salt. In a small bowl, combine chicken broth and soy sauce. In a second small bowl combine the cornstarch and water and mix well to combine.
