Beef (or Chicken) and Broccoli

Warning: not a kid-pleasing dish. Scott and I ate it all ourselves. I had to make a regular chicken gravy to put on their rice.

I got this recipe off of Recipezaar. (#99476) It was listed as "The Best Easy Beef and Broccoli Stirfry." It was easy and yummy.

I am lazy today so I am just going to paste the recipe right from recipezaar. I used chicken breasts instead of beef in mine.
