Cook the rice using steps you normally do (rice cooker, steamer etc).
Add cooking oil to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion. Cook until the onion turns translucent, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the broccoli florets and chickpeas. Add the broth and mix everything together.
Make the sauce using water, balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, garlic powder, onion powder, ginger powder.
Pour sauce over top of vegetables and mix together. Cook an additional 1-3 minutes.
