2 cups instant whole-grain brown rice
1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
2 tbsp lite soy sauce

Prepare rice according to package's instructions.
Wisk vinegar, soy sauce, cornstarch, honey, and sriracha in a small bowl. Set aside.

Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink on the outside and just starting to brown in spots, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
Add remaining oil, garlic, and ginger to pan and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 20-30 seconds.
Add broth and bring to boil, stirring constantly.
Add vegetables, reduce heat to a simmer, cover and cook until the vegetables are tender-crisp, 4-6 minutes.
Stir in the chicken.
Whisk the reserved sauce and add to the pan.
Simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thickened and the chicken is heated through.
Serve with the rice.
