Easy Asian

 

I really like Asian inspired dishes, but sometimes they are a lot of work or they don't taste like what you had at the restaurant.  I really like this dish because it's super easy and has all the classic flavors I want that even my kids will eat.  Sometimes, foreign cuisine is the easiest to make processed free and I promise this will be a dinner you can get on the table in minutes, so don't order take out!

3 Tbsp. water
3 Tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
1 large chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
3/4 tsp. sesame oil
3 cups cooked brown rice
1 - 2 Tbsp. rice vinegar
2 1/2 cups coleslaw mix (just shredded cabbage and carrots - I buy mine right at the regular grocery store)
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 Tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Combine the water and soy sauce in a medium pan and heat then add the chicken.  Cover the pan and cook for 4 to 5 minutes.  Turn off the heat and add the sesame oil.  In a separate bowl, combine the cooked rice, vinegar, coleslaw mix, cilantro, and sesame seeds.  Add the chicken with the sauce from the pan - you can add all the sauce or just as much as you like.  Stir everything together and serve.

You can have some optional lime wedges to squirt on top for those who would like that too.  I have to admit, this is pretty good cold as well.  I told you - easy Asian!
