Description

A quick and vibrant Asian-inspired bowl featuring tender, sautéed chicken and crisp vegetables coated in a creamy, spicy-sweet bang bang sauce, served over a bed of fluffy rice for a satisfying meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower)
  • 1 cup mixed vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, carrots)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice

Instructions

  1. Cook rice according to package instructions and set aside.
  2. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté chicken for 6-8 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, garlic powder, and lime juice to make the bang bang sauce.
  4. Add mixed vegetables to the skillet with the chicken and sauté for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp.
  5. Remove skillet from heat and pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables, stirring to coat evenly.
  6. Serve the chicken and vegetable mixture over the cooked rice. Garnish with additional sriracha or green onions if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier sauce, increase the sriracha; for milder, reduce it.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Use pre-cooked or frozen vegetables to save time.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken with tofu or chickpeas.
