Ingredients

500 g boneless skinless chicken thighs

3 tbsp maple syrup

2 tbsp sriracha sauce

1 tbsp soy sauce

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp lime juice

1 cup jasmine rice

1 cup coconut milk

1/4 cup water

1 mango, diced

1 avocado, diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

1/4 cup chili mayo

2 tbsp chopped chives or green onions


Instructions

1. Mix maple syrup, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, and lime juice in a bowl. Add chicken and marinate for 30 minutes in the fridge.

2. Rinse rice until water runs clear. Cook rice with coconut milk and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer covered until fluffy.

3. In a separate bowl, combine mango, avocado, red onion, cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. Mix gently to create salsa.

4. Heat grill or grill pan to medium-high. Grill chicken for 6–7 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Let rest and slice.

5. Assemble bowls with a scoop of rice, grilled chicken bites, mango avocado salsa, and a dollop of chili mayo. Garnish with chives or green onions.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute low-fat coconut milk and air-fry the chicken.

Adjust sriracha to taste for more or less heat.

Store ingredients separately for best freshness and assemble before serving.
