Asian steamed dinner for 1
First I chopped up the chicken breast and put in a 1.5cup bowl (this bowl must only take up half of the steamer basket) and poured some marinade on top. I knew the marinade wouldn't have time to flavour the chicken before I would be hungry, but would deal with that later. Put in fridge.
Next measured out 1/4cup of rice and 1/2cup of water. Mixed in another small bowl. Filled steamer with water to the maximum line, put rice in steamer and let steam for 35 minutes. Meanwhile I chopped up the broccoli.
Once time was up, I added the bowl of chicken and marinade to the steamer basket with the rice and continued to steam for 10 minutes, after which the broccoli was added and everything steamed for a final 10 minutes. I'm not sure if such a small quantity of rice needs as much time to steam, but food doesn't tend to dry out in a steamer so I didn't worry about it.
