  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice or your preferred grain
  • Fresh vegetables (cucumbers, shredded carrots, bell peppers)
  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth. Set aside.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook in the oven, grill, or skillet for about 6-8 minutes per side until fully cooked. Alternatively, use an air fryer for crispy chicken.
  3. Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then shred with two forks or chop into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Start with a base of cooked rice in a bowl. Top with shredded chicken, fresh vegetables, and drizzle generously with the spicy mayo sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the spicy mayo mixture for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Use gluten-free soy sauce or tamari for a gluten-free option.
  • Prepare the vegetables ahead of time for quick assembly.
  • Store leftover chicken and toppings separately for freshness.
