Ingredients

    1.75 lbs. of boneless, skinless, chicken breasts (about 2 large breasts) - cut into small cubes or pieces
    1 12.7 fl. oz. bottle of The Ginger People Sweet Ginger Chili dipping and cooking sauce (to marinate chicken pieces in)
    1 tbsp. of Sylvia's Kickin' Hot Sauce (use in marinade)

Mix the Sweet Ginger Chili Sauce with the Hot Sauce
Put chicken and marinade into a 13x9" pan, cover, refrigerate for at least 2 hours
Prepare the Goya Rice as the instructions on the box indicate, set aside, keep warm
Thaw and drain the spinach and put into a large bowl
Clean, peel, prepare, and chop the carrots and onions, add them to the large bowl
Mix the ingredients with a spoon
