instructions
    1

    Begin by cooking the rice according to package instructions, which typically takes about 20 minutes. Use a rice cooker or stovetop.

    2

    While the rice is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

    3

    Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet, sautéing them for about 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant.

    4

    Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and add it to the skillet. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently until it’s browned and cooked through.

    5

    Incorporate the broccoli florets into the skillet, cooking for an additional 5 minutes until the broccoli is tender yet still crisp.

    6

    Stir in the hoisin sauce and soy sauce, coating the chicken and broccoli evenly; let it cook for 2 to 3 more minutes.

    7

    If the rice is done, fluff it with a fork and serve it on plates topped with the hoisin chicken and broccoli mixture.

    8

    Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion before serving.
