Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, until the water is absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and set aside.
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, minced ginger, and minced garlic to make the marinade.
Cut the plant-based chicken into bite-sized pieces. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken, stirring to coat evenly. Set aside for 10 minutes.
During this time, chop the cucumber and carrot into thin slices. Thinly slice the radishes and green onions. Halve and pit the avocado, and slice it thinly.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook the marinated plant-based chicken for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove from heat.
Prepare your vegan chicken poke bowls by dividing the cooked rice evenly between two bowls.
Arrange the cooked plant-based chicken, sliced cucumber, carrot, radishes, avocado, and edamame beans over the rice.
Drizzle the remaining marinade over the bowls.
Sprinkle with black sesame seeds, nori sheet strips, and sliced green onions for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious vegan chicken poke bowls!
