I've been trying to capture the lovely garlic flavor of a Chinese take-out staple: broccoli chicken. Unlike the deep soy flavors and colors of a broccoli beef, broccoli chicken tends towards a lighter flavored sauce that really brings out the garlic tones. I'm not quite there yet, but this last attempt was too good not to share.
