Ingredients

Scale
  • 680 g boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 2.5 cm cubes
  • 15 ml vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 240 ml Bang Bang sauce, divided
  • 30 ml sesame oil, divided
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • 0.5 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 large carrots, diced
  • 1 large white onion, diced
  • 60 ml green onions, diced, plus more for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 800 g cooked long-grain white rice, cooled
  • 60 ml unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 30 ml soy sauce
  • 55 g frozen peas

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine chicken cubes with vegetable oil, paprika, garlic powder, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and 120 ml of Bang Bang sauce. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat 15 ml of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining sesame oil and scramble the beaten eggs until fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add diced carrots, onion, and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  5. Stir in the cooked rice, remaining Bang Bang sauce, soy sauce, and cooked chicken. Mix well to combine.
  6. Add the scrambled eggs, green onions, lemon juice, and frozen peas. Stir until everything is heated through and well combined.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with additional green onions.

Notes

  • For a spicier version, add more Bang Bang sauce or chili flakes.
  • Feel free to substitute chicken with shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
  • Make sure the rice is cooled to prevent it from becoming mushy.
