Instructions
Spicy mayonnaise
- Add the ingredients to a small bowl, and stir to combine.
Chicken stir-fry with broccoli
- Heat the olive oil in a wok or large frying pan, over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir-fry for a few minutes, until the chicken turns golden brown.
- Add the broccoli and tamari soy sauce. Stir together for a couple of minutes until the broccoli is crisp, yet tender. Spoon into individual bowls, and serve with the spicy mayonnaise on the side.
Can I freeze and reheat this dish?
While stir-fries freeze just fine, mayo typically does not. That said, if you freeze this dish, we’d suggest using up the leftover sauce with another meal — and making a fresh batch when you go to reheat the stir-fry.
Yay!! It must be good if kids go back for more :)
You can simply use your favorite hot sauce. Just be sure it has clean ingredients!
Many people like popular brands such as Tabasco or Cholula.
Yes, you may substitute chicken breast for the thighs.
Yes! My family loves the spicy mayo on everything!!
For the serving size, you will divide your finished dish into the number of servings you have the recipe set. You can do this by portioning it out or by doing a visual estimation. You can also set the recipe for 1 serving to see a single serving is 1/2 lb of chicken and 2.5 ounces of broccoli.
Hi, Maria! That would be personal preference. It works well either way!
Awesome! I am so glad you enjoyed this one. Remember, that spicy mayo goes well with a lot of things :)
Tamari will have carbohydrates but should not have added sugar.
Great ideas to change it up a bit!
You can use either, as indicated in the recipe list. Some people have more difficulty locating refined coconut oil and prefer the more neutral taste of olive oil. Avocado oil would work well also.
Yes, you can substitute another vegetable. Look for one that is a similar carb count as broccoli. Green beans could work well here.

It depends on the specific recipe. In this dish, the spicy mayonnaise is not cooked. The garlic powder will dissolve fairly easily and people may not want to bite into pieces of raw garlic in the mayo.
