Scale
2 cups jasmine rice
1 lb chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger, grated
1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions
Cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions.
In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing.
In the same skillet, add broccoli and carrots, sautéing until tender.
Assemble the bowls by placing rice at the bottom, topped with sliced chicken, sautéed vegetables, and garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
For a spicier version, add red pepper flakes to the marinade.
Feel free to substitute chicken with tofu for a vegetarian option.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
