Ingredients
  

Chicken and Rice
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups white rice or brown rice
  • 4 cups chicken broth for cooking rice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce for seasoning

Method
 

Cook the Rice
  1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice in a rice cooker with chicken broth according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Prepare the Chicken

  2. Add soy sauce to the skillet and stir to coat the chicken evenly.
Cook the Vegetables
  1. In the same skillet, add the sliced carrots, bell pepper, and snap peas. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  2. Add the steamed broccoli and mix well.
Assemble the Bowl
