Ingredients:

• 2 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, sliced into strips
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 cup sliced mushrooms
• 1 cup cooked brown rice

• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken strips and cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
   
2. In the same pan, add sesame oil, garlic, and ginger, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
3. Add broccoli and mushrooms to the pan, cooking for 4-5 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
4. Stir in the cooked rice, soy sauce, and cooked chicken, mixing everything together until evenly combined and heated through.
   
5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve in bowls, garnishing with extra sesame seeds or green onions if desired.

Note: For a lower-carb option, swap the brown rice for cauliflower rice.
