Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups water
1 cup uncooked white rice
3 eggs
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, bite-size pieces
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
ΒΌ teaspoon pepper
1 cup tomatoes, diced
1 bunch raw broccoli, with stalk, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add rice and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool.
