Ingredients:
- 1.5 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cubed into 1-inch pieces
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Sriracha
- 1 tsp lime juice
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 3 cups cooked jasmine rice
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced
Instructions:
- Cook the jasmine rice according to package instructions. Keep covered and warm until assembly.
- Toss cubed chicken breast in a bowl with cornstarch, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken in a single layer; cook without moving for 3 minutes until golden-brown, flip, and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove chicken from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp of oil and sauté minced garlic and grated ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Simmer for 3–5 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens into a glossy syrup.
- Return the seared chicken to the pan, tossing rapidly until every piece is thoroughly coated in the glaze.
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Sriracha, lime juice, and garlic powder to create the spicy mayo.
- Spoon a generous portion of cooked rice into four bowls. Top with the sticky chicken.
- Drizzle the Sriracha mayo in a zigzag pattern across the top and garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
