While it's easy to buy precut broccoli florets, we like to cut them from the heads (about 2 in this case) and save the stems for another meal.

Ingredients

1 c. pearl barley 3 c. lower-sodium chicken broth 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 lb. skinless, boneless chicken breast halves salt Pepper 1 large carrot 1 small onion 2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves 2 clove garlic 8 oz. mushrooms 1/4 c. water 6 c. broccoli florets

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In large microwave-safe bowl, stir together barley and broth. Cover with vented plastic wrap; microwave on high 20 to 25 minutes or until most of liquid is absorbed, stirring once. Meanwhile, in 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil on medium-high. Add chicken; sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook 4 minutes or until golden, stirring once. With slotted spoon, transfer chicken to bowl. To skillet, add carrot, onion, and thyme; cook 3 minutes, stirring. Add garlic; cook 30 seconds, stirring, then add mushrooms and water, scraping up browned bits. Cook 2 minutes; remove from heat. Stir in chicken and barley; transfer to shallow 3-quart baking dish. Toss broccoli with 1/8 teaspoon salt and remaining oil; arrange on top of barley mixture. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until broccoli is tender.
