Ingredients

1 tsp Chinese five spice powder

1 tsp coriander

1/2 tsp cumin

1 tbsp ginger, grated

1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (GF if needed)

1 tbsp sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 carrot, thinly sliced

1 cup green beans (fresh or frozen)

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

2 cups cooked brown rice

1 lb cooked boneless skinless chicken breast, chopped

1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced

Directions

Whisk together the five-spice powder, coriander, cumin, ginger, and soy sauce.

In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium high heat. Saute the garlic for 30 seconds.

Add the carrots and green beans to the pan and cook for 3 – 4 minutes, or until they become tender. Add a little water to the pan (as necessary to keep the carrots from sticking) and cook with a lid.

Add the bell peppers, rice, chicken and sauce. Cook for 2 – 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

Sprinkle the green onions over the top and serve hot.
