Description

A vibrant dish featuring crispy chicken tossed in a creamy, flavorful bang bang sauce, served over rice or noodles for a satisfying and textured meal.


Ingredients

  • Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Fresh garlic cloves
  • Chili sauce (for that sweet and spicy kick)
  • Mayonnaise (to add creaminess)
  • Chopped green onions (for freshness and crunch)
  • Cooked rice or noodles (to serve as the base)

Instructions

  1. Season and cook the chicken until crispy—pan-fry, bake, or air-fry depending on preference.
  2. Mix garlic, chili sauce, and mayonnaise to make the creamy bang bang sauce.
  3. Toss the cooked chicken in the sauce, ensuring every piece is coated.
  4. Layer cooked rice or noodles in a bowl, top with the sauced chicken, sprinkle chopped green onions on top, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Swap rice for noodles, quinoa, or cauliflower rice as a base.
  • Use chicken thighs or tofu instead of chicken breasts for variation.
  • Add crunchy veggies like bell peppers or shredded cabbage for extra texture.
  • Include avocado for added creaminess or sesame seeds for texture.
  • Store chicken, sauce, and base separately in airtight containers in the fridge for 3–4 days.
  • Reheat chicken in oven or air fryer to keep it crispy before assembling the bowl.
