Method
Preheat oven to 200 degrees celsius. In a large bowl, mix together the chicken, ¼ cup soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine or white vinegar and honey. Leave to marinade for 15-30 minutes.
In a separate bowl, mix together the rice, garlic, ginger, onion and mushrooms, then transfer to a baking dish. Pour over the stock and remaining soy sauce, then stir gently to combine.
Nestle the chicken pieces amongst the rice mixture, reserving any remaining marinade. Place into the oven and bake for 20 minutes, then pour over the remaining marinade and nestle the broccoli amongst the chicken. Return to the oven for a further 10-15 minutes or until the liquid has absorbed and the chicken is cooked through.
Garnish the cooked dish with sesame and spring onion if desired, and serve immediately.
