Instructions

Follow these straightforward steps to create your Bang Bang Chicken Bowl:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces.

2. Set Up Breading Station: In one bowl, combine cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, place the panko bread crumbs.

3. Bread the Chicken: Dredge each piece of chicken in the cornstarch mixture, dip in the beaten eggs, then coat with panko bread crumbs.

4. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

5. Fry the Chicken: Carefully add the breaded chicken pieces to the hot oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Work in batches if necessary.

6. Drain Oil: Once cooked, place the chicken on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

7. Prepare Bang Bang Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together sweet chili sauce, mayonnaise, and sriracha. Adjust the spice level as desired.

8. Assemble Bowls: Start with a base of cooked rice, add mixed greens, shredded carrots, and diced cucumbers.

9. Top with Chicken: Add the crispy chicken pieces on top of the vegetables.

10. Drizzle Sauce: Generously drizzle the Bang Bang sauce over everything.

11. Garnish: Top with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and crunch.
