Adobo-Style Braised Chicken Breast with Ginger-Scallion Jasmine Rice

Marinate the chicken breast in soy sauce, vinegar, crushed garlic, and black peppercorns for 30 minutes.

In a heavy-bottomed pan, sear the chicken over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add the marinade, a splash of water, and simmer covered for 15 minutes until cooked through and tender.

While the chicken braises, steam the broccoli until bright green and tender-crisp. Wilt the spinach in the same pan briefly with a pinch of salt.

Fluff the pre-cooked white rice with fresh sliced scallions and a touch of ginger paste.

Plate the rice, top with the sliced braised chicken, and serve the greens alongside, drizzling the reduced braising liquid over the chicken to finish.
