In a small saucepan, combine the rice and 3/4 cup of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest covered for 5 minutes. Done when tender and water is absorbed.
In a bowl, whisk together the vital wheat gluten, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add 1/4 cup of water and stir until a stiff dough forms. Knead for 1 minute, then cut into bite-size pieces. Done when dough is elastic.
Heat half the canola oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seitan pieces in a single layer and cook for 4 minutes, flip, and cook for 4 minutes more until browned and firm. Remove from the skillet. Done when browned and firm.
Add the remaining oil to the same skillet over medium heat. Add the broccoli and a splash of water. Cover and steam for 3 minutes. Uncover, add the garlic and ginger, and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Done when broccoli is tender-crisp.
Return the seitan to the skillet. Pour in the soy sauce and toss everything together to coat and heat through for 2 minutes. Serve alongside the white rice. Done when heated through.
