    1. Bring rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes.<\/li>
    2. Combine soy sauce, brown sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl; stir until smooth. Mix ginger, garlic, and red pepper into sauce. Cover chicken strips with marinade and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.<\/li>
    3. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir bell pepper, water chestnuts, broccoli, carrots and onion until just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove vegetables from skillet and keep warm.<\/li>
    4. Remove chicken from marinade. Reserve marinade. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir chicken until slightly pink on the inside, about 2 minutes per side. Return vegetables and reserved marinade to the skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until chicken is no longer pink in the middle and vegetables are tender, 5-7 minutes. Serve immediately over rice.<\/li><\/ol>\t<\/div>\n\t
