1 ½ cups basmati rice

6 crowns broccoli

0.681 kg chicken breasts, boneless skinless

3 eggs

3 cloves garlic

1 ½ small bunches green onions (scallions)

cornstarch

sesame seeds

Instructions

Using a strainer or colander, rinse the rice under cold, running water, then drain and transfer to a small saucepan. Add water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs and cornstarch.

Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces. Add to egg mixture and toss to coat. Set aside.

Once the liquid comes to a boil, stir the mixture, cover the saucepan, and reduce the heat to low. Cook the rice until the liquid is fully absorbed, 15 to 18 minutes. Once done, remove the rice from the heat and let it stand, still covered, for 5 minutes.

Wash and cut broccoli into same-size florets. Cut remaining stalks into smaller pieces. Wash, trim root ends, and chop green onions.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.

Peel and mince garlic. In a small bowl, prepare sauce by whisking together garlic, honey, soy sauce, oil, and seeds. Set aside.

Coat bottom of skillet with oil. Add chicken and cook until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer to a bowl.

Return skillet to stove and add more oil. Add broccoli and, stirring frequently, cook until tender and bright green, 3-4 minutes.

Return chicken to skillet, pour in sauce, and add onions. Stir and cook until sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Uncover the rice and fluff with a fork.

To serve, place rice in a bowl and top with stir fry. Enjoy!
