Let rice simmer for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until water is absorbed.
4. Mince garlic.
5. When rice has about ten minutes left, bring olive oil and minced garlic to high heat in a pan/wok.
6. When garlic is aromatic, add cubed chicken and lower heat to medium-high.
7. Add lemon juice.
8. While chicken is cooking, clean/cut broccoli and trim sugar snap peas.
9. When most of the chicken is no longer pink, add teriyaki sauce. Mix well.
10. Immediately add vegetables. Toss all together.
11. Cover pan/wok and lower heat to medium until chicken entirely cooked through and vegetables softened.
12. Serve chicken and vegetables alongside rice, or over rice.
