Ingredients
  

1 lb boneless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 cup cornstarch

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 cup mayonnaise

3 tbsp sweet chili sauce

1 tbsp sriracha (adjust for spice preference)

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

1 cup shredded carrots

1 cup sliced cucumbers

1 cup chopped romaine lettuce

1/4 cup chopped green onions

1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)

Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Chicken: In a bowl, combine cornstarch, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss the chicken pieces in the mixture until they are fully coated.

    Fry the Chicken: Heat oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

      Make the Bang Bang Sauce: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until smooth and well combined. Adjust the spiciness by adding more sriracha if desired.

        Assemble the Bowls: In individual serving bowls, layer a generous scoop of cooked jasmine rice, followed by the crispy chicken pieces. Drizzle with the Bang Bang sauce.

          Add Fresh Veggies: Top each bowl with shredded carrots, sliced cucumbers, and chopped romaine lettuce.

            Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds for added flavor and crunch.

              Serve: Enjoy your Bang Bang Chicken Bowl warm, drizzled with extra sauce if desired!
