A delightful salad that combines crispy jasmine rice, tender chicken, and a vibrant slaw, all drizzled with a sweet and spicy bang bang sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 cup shredded cabbage
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chilled jasmine rice and press it down gently with a spatula into an even layer.
  2. Cook the rice undisturbed for 5 to 7 minutes. You’re looking for a rich golden brown color and a nice crisp crust at the bottom.
  3. Carefully flip sections of rice using a spatula and crisp the other side for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until it’s golden and crispy.
  4. Meanwhile, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, rice vinegar, and sugar in a medium bowl until it becomes smooth and creamy—this is your signature bang bang sauce!
  5. Toss the shredded chicken in half of the prepared sauce, ensuring every strand is evenly coated. Set aside to let the flavors infuse.
  6. In a clean bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrots, sliced green onions, and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to create a vibrant vegetable slaw.
  7. Divide the crispy rice among serving plates. Heap on the crunchy vegetable slaw, followed by the sauced chicken. Drizzle the remaining sauce over the top for that extra creaminess.
  8. Garnish each salad with fresh lime wedges and serve immediately to maintain that irresistible crunch in the rice.

Notes

For added crunch, sprinkle crushed peanuts or cashews on top. Adjust heat in the sauce by adding more or less sriracha.
