The first thing I did was to slice up the goose breasts into thin strips.  Then I put them in a pan and covered them with Zesty Italian Salad Dressing.  I left them to marinate for about 6 hours.  

When it was time to cook dinner I started by putting two cups of brown rice to cook in my rice cooker.  

While the rice was cooking I prepared the rest of the meal in a large skillet.  I knew the rice would take about 30 minutes and the skillet portion would take about 20 minutes.

I put some olive oil in the skillet and turned the heat to medium.  Then I threw in a whole bag of frozen California Style mixed vegetables.  After stirring for a few minutes I added the slices of goose breast.

Now I allowed these ingredients to cook, stirring occasionally while I prepared the sauce.

For the sauce I mixed some BBQ Sauce, apple sauce, maple syrup, minced garlic, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

When the meat and vegetables were cooked I scooped off the liquid that had accumulated in the skillet.

I turned the heat down to simmer and poured the sauce over the ingredients in the pan.  

Now I stirred in the sauce to coat all the meat and vegetables.  I let it simmer for about 3 minutes.

When the rice was cooked the skillet portion was also complete.

Now it was time to serve and enjoy!

If you have some people that don't like their rice covered in other food, like my husband, it is easy to accomodate them!

This recipe can be modified to include any vegetables including onions, peppers or mushrooms.  Use anything that you have on hand.
