Rinse the dry white rice and combine with 0.5 cups water in a small saucepan; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.
While the rice cooks, dice the raw chicken breast into 1-inch pieces and cut the raw broccoli florets into bite-sized chunks.
In a small bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, honey, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, arrowroot starch, and 1 tbsp water to create the sauce.
Steam the broccoli florets for 4 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green, then set aside.
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the chicken pieces, and sauté for 6-7 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet with the chicken, stirring constantly for about 1 minute until the sauce thickens into a glossy glaze.
Toss the steamed broccoli into the skillet to coat thoroughly, then remove from heat and drizzle with the toasted sesame oil.
Serve the glazed chicken and broccoli over the warm bed of cooked rice.
