A tasty sweet-and-sour sauce with minimal cooking makes this broccoli dish delicious without any added fat. Leftover canned broth can be frozen in ice cube trays; remove when frozen and seal in freezer bag; one cube is about 1 tablespoon of broth.
1 pound broccoli, cut into flowerets and 1-inch pieces (4 cups)
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons cold water
2 tablespoons fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash of crushed red pepper, if desired
1 cup canned baby corn, rinsed and drained
Cut any broccoli stems more than 1 inch wide lengthwise in half. Place broccoli in boiling water; heat to boiling. Boil 1 minute; drain. Immediately rinse with cold water; drain. Mix cornstarch and cold water. Heat broth, honey, lemon juice, ketchup, garlic, lemon peel and salt to boiling in nonstick wok or 12-inch skillet, stirring frequently. Stir in cornstarch mixture. Cook and stir about 1 minute or until thickened. Stir in red pepper. Add broccoli and corn; cook and stir about 30 seconds or until heated through.
