Here is a recipe that can actually be called a Corey-original. Well, insofar as any recipe can be called an original, but you get the idea. So in our renewed push to eat healthy and the scale back on carbs - while increasing vegetables, we created this dish. The nice part about this is that with the walnuts, it is very filling without putting this atop rice or served with potatoes. It reheats really nice for lunch options as well. While I do not have the health stats, it appears to be something that even Dr. Oz might approve of. Well, he might not say it is really horrible! Health aside, the dish is great and I loved the way it came out.
Ingredients (Makes 3 servings)
2 tbsp Olive oil
1/3 cup Broth (chicken or vegetable)
3 tbsp Cooking sherry

2 Chicken breasts, sliced into thin strips

Kosher salt and black pepper to taste.

1/2 cup Walnuts
