Serve on a bright solid colored plate.  For our dinner, we used an orange plate by Fiesta. You can read more about our dishes here: Fiesta Dishes

Place a 1/2 cup of rice on each plate.  Next, top the rice with chicken.  Lastly, place the snap peas around the edge of the plate, around the rice and chicken.
