How to make it
Cook rice in chicken broth according to package directions, approximately 18-20 minutes until tender and liquid is absorbed.
While rice cooks, combine tamari sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced chili, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl to create the glaze.
Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then cook for 6-7 minutes until golden on all sides.
Add diced mango to the skillet with chicken and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour the glaze over the chicken and mango mixture, stirring constantly for 2-3 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
In a separate skillet, heat remaining coconut oil and sauté broccoli and snap peas for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
Divide cooked rice into bowls, top with glazed chicken and mango mixture, then add sautéed vegetables.
Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions before serving.
