Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 cup cooked rice (white, brown, or cauliflower)
  • 1 cup mixed veggies (broccoli, bell peppers, carrots)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp lime juice

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Rice cooker (optional)
  • knife
  • cutting board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spoon or spatula
  • Meat thermometer (optional)

Method
 

  1. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Set aside when ready.
  2. Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté chicken until golden brown and cooked through, about 6–8 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sriracha, honey, garlic powder, and lime juice to make the sauce.
  5. Add mixed veggies to the skillet with the chicken. Cook for 2–3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
  6. Remove skillet from heat. Pour sauce over chicken and veggies, stirring to coat evenly.
  7. Serve the chicken and veggies over rice. Garnish with extra sriracha or green onions if desired.

Notes

Customize your bowl with white, brown, or cauliflower rice. Adjust sauce heat by adding more sriracha or balance sweetness with honey. For meal prep, store the components separately and combine just before serving.
