• 1 tsp lime juice
• 30 g parmesan

1. Step 1

   Cook the 180 g brown rice according to the package directions, then let it steam for 5 minutes before fluffing.

   Cut the 220 g chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and pat the pieces dry with paper towels.

5. Step 5

   Cook the chicken in a hot non-stick pan for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the outside is golden and the center is fully cooked.

6. Step 6

   In a small bowl, stir together the ingredients for the creamy peanut lime sauce until smooth and balanced. Add a splash of water if you want it thinner.

7. Step 7

   Quickly cook the sturdier vegetables in the same pan for 2 to 4 minutes so they stay bright and slightly crisp, then keep the raw vegetables for topping.

8. Step 8

   Build the bowl with the brown rice, add the cooked chicken breast, arrange the vegetables around it, drizzle over the sauce, and finish with crushed peanuts and cilantro.
