You really can't beat a rice bowl, especially when it's bringing colour, flavour and crunch to the table. This dish is no different, packed with lemon-pepper seasoning which coats the PB chick'n to perfection. It's also oozing with the brightest zucchini and green beans we could find and is all topped with some crushed peanuts for crunch!
