Bang Bang Chicken Bowl

A delicious and easy meal combining crispy chicken, fresh veggies, and a creamy, spicy sauce.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

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 cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken pieces in the mixture until well coated.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the coated chicken pieces in a single layer and 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 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 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

Ensure your oil is hot enough before frying for a crispy texture. Customize the veggies based on your preference.
