Instructions

4 steps

1

Wash and dry produce.

Trim green beans if necessary. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. Halve oranges. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

Place green beans and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4) in a medium microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap and microwave until tender, 2-3 minutes (continue to microwave in 30-second intervals if needed). Season with salt and pepper; toss to combine.
2

Open package of chicken* and drain off any excess liquid.

Add a large drizzle of oil to a hot large pan. Add chicken, broccoli, salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and broccoli is tender, 5-7 minutes.
3

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk jam, chili sauce, half the soy sauce, half the cornstarch, 1 tsp vinegar, and juice from orange halves (all the soy sauce, all the cornstarch, and 2 tsp vinegar for 4). (Be sure to measure the vinegar—we sent more!)

To pan with chicken and broccoli, add orange-soy mixture and scallion whites; cook, stirring, until sauce has thickened and everything is coated, 1-2 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
4

While sauce cooks, massage rice in package; snip to partially open. Microwave until tender, 90 seconds. Fluff and season with salt and pepper.

Top rice with chicken and broccoli and green beans (draining first). Sprinkle with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve.

Chicken is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 165°.
