Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Chicken Breast, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 cup Cornstarch
- 1/4 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Sweet Chili Sauce
- 1 tbsp Sriracha (adjust to your spice preference)

Instructions
- In a bowl, toss the chicken pieces with cornstarch, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
- While the chicken is cooking, prepare the Bang Bang sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, and garlic powder.
- Once the chicken is cooked, pour the Bang Bang sauce over the chicken and toss to coat evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce is slightly thickened.
- Assemble your bowls: Start with a base of cooked rice, top with shredded lettuce, and then add the Bang Bang chicken.
- Garnish with shredded carrots, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Bang Bang Chicken Bowl!
Notes
- Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the spice level.
- For a lighter option, use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise.
- Add other vegetables like bell peppers or broccoli to the bowl.
- The chicken can be baked instead of pan-fried for a healthier alternative. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes.
