# Directions:
01 - Set oven to 425°F and allow to reach temperature.
02 - Rinse rice under cold water. Combine rice, water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.
03 - Toss bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and broccoli with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Spread in single layer and roast for 20-25 minutes, turning once, until golden and tender.
04 - In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Add green and red cabbage and carrot; toss to coat. Refrigerate until serving.
05 - Pat chicken breasts dry and season with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through to internal temperature of 165°F. Brush generously with BBQ sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes more per side until sauce caramelizes. Remove from heat and slice.
06 - Divide cooked rice among four bowls. Top each with sliced BBQ chicken, roasted vegetables, and coleslaw. Drizzle with additional BBQ sauce if desired.
