Wash and dry all produce. Peel and mince or grate ginger. Halve, core, and thinly slice bell pepper into strips. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Cut broccoli florets into bite-size pieces. Zest and quarter lime. Mince cilantro.

Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper and onion; season with salt and black pepper. Cook, stirring, until slightly tender, ~{3%minutes}. Add broccoli and a splash of water. Cover and steam until broccoli is bright green, ~{4%minutes}. Uncover and add remaining ginger. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, ~{1%minutes} more.

To pan with veggies, add sweet soy glaze, sweet thai chili sauce, ¼ cup water, and lime juice to taste. Cook, stirring, until sauce has thickened and veggies are coated, ~{2%minutes}. Stir in half the cilantro. Turn off heat.

Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 tbsp butter and lime zest to taste. Season with salt. Divide between bowls. Top rice with stir-fry, peanuts, crispy fried onions, and remaining cilantro. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
