Is Panda Express Healthy?

We’re all trying our darndest to stick with those New Year’s Resolutions, right? Panda Express has “Wok Smart” recipes that are all around 200 calories per serving, and this String Bean Chicken Breast Recipe just happens to be one of those recipes. Plus, you can make Panda Express entrees even healthier at home, with low carb and gluten free options (see below).

How to Make String Bean Chicken Breast Low Carb

Watching those pesky carbs? All you have to do is omit the cornstarch in this recipe. You won’t get that thick coating on the chicken or in the sauce, but the flavor is still abundant. Try it and see for yourself. It’s still delicious!

Panda Express Gluten Free

We have several members of our family that need to eat gluten free but just love Panda Express. Unfortunately, Panda doesn’t offer many gluten-free options in their restaurants. However, making Panda Express recipes gluten free is SO EASY when you cook them in your own kitchen. You will just need to make a couple very minor adjustments. You won’t miss eating at the restaurant at all! We will be adding some more Panda Express recipes throughout the year, all with tips on making them GF.

How to Make String Bean Chicken Gluten Free

To make this simple Panda recipe gluten free, make sure you opt for a gluten-free soy sauce and chicken broth. Most all-natural chicken broth is gluten-free, but always double check labels just to be sure.

What is the Difference Between String Beans and Green Beans?

In a word, nothing. They are one in the same. Hericot vert is a different kind of green bean that is very similar, just thinner. So feel free to use haricot vert in this recipe in place of the green beans if that is what you have on hand.
