Yield:
8 chicken breasts + 12 cups rice mixture

Ingredients

  • 8 6 ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

  • ½ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

  • 3 tablespoon lime juice

  • 2 tablespoon packed brown sugar

  • 5 cloves garlic, minced

  • 4 teaspoon grated fresh ginger

  • 1 tablespoon Asian chili-garlic sauce

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 6 cup cooked white or brown rice

  • 2 12-16 ounce pkg. frozen broccoli florets

  • 2 medium onions, cut into 1/2-inch wedges

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

  • Sesame seeds (optional)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease a 3-qt. rectangular baking dish and a 3-qt. disposable foil pan. Place chicken in a large bowl.

  2. For marinade, in a small bowl combine next seven ingredients (through olive oil). Drizzle over chicken; toss to coat. Marinate at room temperature 15 minutes.

  3. In another large bowl combine next seven ingredients (through pepper). Divide rice mixture between prepared baking dish and foil pan. Top each with half of the chicken; drizzle with any remaining marinade.

  4. Cover chicken mixture in foil pan with plastic wrap followed by a layer of aluminum foil. Store in freezer up to 3 months.

  5. Bake remaining chicken mixture, covered with foil, 35 minutes or until chicken is done (165°F). If desired, sprinkle with sesame seeds and lime wedges.
