Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs or breasts
  • 1/3 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 lime cut into wedges
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes optional

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and lime juice. Add chicken and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the fridge.
  2. Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 5–6 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, honey, and lime juice. Simmer over low heat for 5–7 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  4. Cook jasmine rice according to package instructions and fluff with a fork.
  5. Assemble bowls by adding rice first. Top with sliced chicken, drizzle coconut sauce over everything, garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, and sprinkle chili flakes if using. Serve warm.
