Prep 15 min · Cook 20 min

In a small saucepan, combine the jasmine rice, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes.
While the rice cooks, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, minced garlic, and black pepper in a small bowl until the cornstarch is dissolved.
Place the broccoli florets in a microwave-safe bowl with a tablespoon of water. Cover and microwave for 2 minutes until tender but still bright green. Set aside.
Heat the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken strips in a single layer and cook for 3 minutes, flip, and cook for 3 minutes more until the edges are golden. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Reduce the skillet heat to medium. Pour the honey garlic sauce over the chicken and add the steamed broccoli. Cook for 2 minutes, tossing constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly.
