Author's Notes

Additional chili garlic sauce can be used for more heat (either during cooking or on top before serving), or omitted completely to make this a milder dish.

Turn this into an appetizer by serving it with lettuce cups instead of a bowl.

Cooking Instructions

HIDE IMAGES
Step 1
Rinse White Rice (1 cup) under running water until the water runs clear.
Step 2
Add the clean rice and Water (1 1/2 cups) to a pot and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until water has absorbed and rice is soft. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
Step 3
While the rice is cooking, add Neutral Oil (1 Tbsp) to a pan and saute the Garlic (3 cloves) and the white part of the Scallions (1 bunch) . Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Add the Ground Chicken (1 lb) to the pan, season with Salt (1 tsp) and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (1 tsp) , and use a wooden spoon or spatula to break it up into small pieces. Cook for 7-10 minutes or until the meat has cooked through and begun to brown. If necessary, drain off any excess liquid.
Step 5
Add Soy Sauce (2 Tbsp) , Sesame Oil (1 Tbsp) , Rice Vinegar (1 Tbsp) , Chili Garlic Sauce (1 tsp) , and Honey (1 Tbsp) to the pan with chicken. Stir well to incorporate. Cook for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Step 6
To serve, divide rice into bowls and top with the sweet and spicy chicken. Add Cucumber (1) , Peanuts (1/4 cup) , sliced green scallions, and Fresh Cilantro (2 Tbsp) .
