If you’re craving Chinese takeout you need to make this instead! It’s delicious and much lower in points.
This Hunan Chicken is also easy to make – ready in about 30 minutes.
You can serve it with white rice, brown rice or even cauliflower rice.

It’s only 2 points per serving for blue and purple, 4 points for green. The points are only for the chicken, it doesn’t include the rice.
If you’re on blue you could add 1/2 cup of rice for 3 additional points which would make your meal only 5 points.

Besides this Hunan Chicken being low in points it is packed full of vegetables to keep you fuller longer.
The main thing I did to keep this recipe low in points was to cut back on the oil, I only used 1 tablespoon.
The vegetables I used were broccoli, red pepper, carrots and baby corn. Feel free to mix up the vegetables with whatever you have on hand.
To make the sauce I used chicken broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, chili paste, cornstarch and honey.
Chili paste is spicy so I only used 1 teaspoon. It doesn’t add much heat to the recipe. If you want it to be a little spicy you can add 2 teaspoons of chili paste.
If you have leftovers this tastes great the next day!
