Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch bite-sized pieces, patted dry
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil, for frying
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Pat chicken pieces completely dry with paper towels.
  2. In a large bowl, combine cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  3. Toss chicken pieces in the mixture until thoroughly coated, pressing the coating into the chicken.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering and reaching 350°F.
  5. Add coated chicken in a single layer, cooking for 3-5 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Remove fried chicken to a wire rack or a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha until smooth.
  8. Start with a base of warm jasmine rice in each bowl and top with crispy chicken.
  9. Arrange shredded lettuce, diced cucumber, and shredded carrots around the chicken.
  10. Drizzle the spicy mayo sauce over the top and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

For a healthier option, consider baking the chicken instead of frying. Store leftovers separately in airtight containers for best freshness.
