Description

A flavorful and satisfying dinner bowl featuring crispy chicken tossed in a spicy mayo sauce, served over jasmine rice with fresh vegetables.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken pieces in the mixture until well coated.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the coated chicken pieces in a single layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until smooth. Adjust the sriracha to your desired spice level.
  4. To assemble the bowls, start with a base of jasmine rice. Top with the cooked chicken, shredded lettuce, diced cucumber, shredded carrots, and green onions.
  5. Drizzle the spicy mayo sauce over the top and sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Feel free to adjust the spice level by modifying the amount of sriracha.
  • To make it healthier, consider baking the chicken instead of frying.
  • This dish can be customized with other vegetables such as bell peppers or avocado.
