Instructions:
-
Cook the Rice:
- Prepare the boil-in-the-bag rice according to the package directions, omitting salt and fat. This typically involves boiling water, adding the rice bag, and simmering for the specified time until the rice is tender. Once cooked, set aside.
-
Prepare the Stir-Fry Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine the stir-fry sauce, ground ginger, and garlic powder, stirring well to ensure all ingredients are fully incorporated. Set aside for later use.
-
Cook the Chicken:
- Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray and add oil, then place it over medium-high heat until hot.
- Cut the boneless, skinless chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and add them to the skillet.
- Stir-fry the chicken for approximately 4 minutes or until it is fully cooked and no longer pink in the center. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside for now.
-
Prepare the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add your choice of vegetables. You can use a combination of bell peppers, broccoli, carrots, or any other vegetables you prefer.
- Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3 minutes or until they are tender-crisp. Be careful not to overcook them, as they should retain some crunchiness.
-
Combine Ingredients:
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet with the vegetables.
- Pour the prepared stir-fry sauce mixture over the chicken and vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
-
Final Cooking:
- Cook the chicken and vegetable mixture over medium-high heat until it is thoroughly heated, allowing the flavors to meld together.
-
Serve:
