Description
A delicious and satisfying meal combining juicy chicken, vibrant vegetables, and creamy Bang Bang sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds total)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
- 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower rice)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup cucumber (julienned)
- 1 cup edamame (shelled)
- 1/4 cup green onions (sliced)
- 1/4 cup cilantro (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and olive oil, ensuring an even coating. Place the seasoned chicken on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for about 5 minutes. Then, dice the chicken into bite-sized pieces.
- Prepare the Bang Bang sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, minced garlic, and lime juice. Adjust the consistency with a splash of water if needed.
- Toss the diced chicken with half of the prepared Bang Bang sauce to coat it well.
- Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked rice among four bowls, then top each with Bang Bang chicken, shredded carrots, julienned cucumber, shelled edamame, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro.
- Drizzle the remaining Bang Bang sauce over each bowl, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
