Start the rice.

Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat and stir-fry the chicken 5 to 6 minutes until browned and cooked through. Move to a plate.
Add the broccoli florets and 2 tablespoons water. Cover and steam 3 minutes, then uncover and stir-fry 1 minute.

Return the chicken, pour in the sauce, and toss 1 to 2 minutes until it thickens and coats everything. Serve over rice.
