Ingredients
  

  • 454 g boneless chicken breast, diced
  • 1 1/2 US cups (240 ml each) dry brown rice
  • 2 US cups broccoli florets
  • 1 US cup pineapple chunks, drained
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) reduced-salt soy sauce
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2 tbsp (30 ml) honey
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt, or less to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Water for rice and steaming broccoli

Method
 

  1. Start the dry brown rice first, using the water quantity and cooking time on the package, typically 30–40 minutes. Mix soy sauce, ginger and honey in a bowl.
  2. Heat oil over medium-high heat. Fry chicken 6–8 minutes, turning, until browned. Add broccoli and 60 ml water; cover and cook 4–5 minutes until broccoli is tender.
  3. Add pineapple and the soy mixture. Simmer uncovered 2–3 minutes until lightly glazed and the chicken reaches 74°C (165°F). Season with pepper and only as much salt as needed.
  4. Divide the cooked rice among four bowls and top with chicken, broccoli, pineapple and sauce. Serve immediately.
