Prep 20 min · Cook 15 min

In a small pot, combine rice, water, and half the salt. 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.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, cornstarch, and 2 tablespoons of water until the cornstarch is dissolved.
Heat half the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add broccoli and a splash of water. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until tender-crisp and bright green. Remove broccoli from the pan and set aside.
Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining oil over high heat. Season chicken with the remaining salt and black pepper. Add chicken to the pan in a single layer and cook for 3 minutes without moving to brown. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic and ginger to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Return broccoli to the pan and pour in the sauce mixture. Toss everything together for 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce has thickened and coats the chicken.
Fluff the rice with a fork and place it on a plate. Top with the chicken and broccoli stir-fry.
