Spicy Bang Bang Chicken Bowl

Print Recipe

A vibrant bowl featuring succulent chicken, crunchy vegetables, and a creamy, spicy Bang Bang sauce over rice or quinoa.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups mixed fresh vegetables (like bell peppers, carrots, and broccoli)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha or other hot sauce (adjust to taste)
  • 2 cups cooked rice or quinoa
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (like cilantro or green onions)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Bang Bang sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. Adjust the sriracha to hit your desired spice level.
  2. Cook the chicken: Heat sesame oil in your skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces, season lightly with salt, and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Sauté the vegetables: In the same skillet, toss in the mixed vegetables. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
  4. Combine: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, drizzle with soy sauce, and gently toss everything together.
  5. Assemble: Serve the mixture over a bed of cooked rice or quinoa, ensuring plenty of the delicious mix lands on each plate. Drizzle generously with the Bang Bang sauce.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh herbs atop the dish for a burst of color and aroma.

Notes

Marinate chicken for 30 minutes in a soy sauce mixture for enhanced flavor. Serve with sides like crispy spring rolls or sesame cucumber salad.
