Toast almonds in a saucepan over medium heat until light brown. Shake the pan frequently
to prevent burning. Add remaining ingredients, bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover,
and simmer for 20 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.

[1] Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
[2] Add garlic and ginger; cook 1 minute.

Stir-Fry Tips:
[A] For authentic Chinese stir-fry taste, you've got to coat your wok with peanut oil. Besides
adding flavor to your dish, the potent oil is loaded with a compound called beta-sitosterol,
which has been shown in studies to help promote good prostate health.
[B] Even a few spears of broccoli can be good for your belly. The veggie is rich in vitamin C
and phytonutrients that quash most stomach ulcers, reducing your risk of stomach cancer.
If you can't stand the stuff, try baby broccoli, which is less bitter and a lot more tender.
[C] A single half breast of chicken contains more than 27 grams of protein. In addition to
packing all that muscle fuel, chicken is loaded with Niacin, a B vitamin your body needs for
healthy skin, normal digestion, and peak brain function.
[D] Vitamin E-rich almonds and peanut oil can help you stay sane. According to a study
published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, guys who get the most
vitamin e from foods in their diet keep their marbles for longer than guys who don't.
[E] Although white or brown rice is a fine option, this dish tastes best over basmati rice, a
long-grain white rice that has a nutty flavor and is a great source of the complex carbs
needed during a long workout. Look for it in large grocery stores or specialty-food markets.
