For the Bang Bang Sauce:

½ cup mayonnaise

2 tbsp sweet chili sauce
1 tbsp sriracha (adjust for spice)
1 tsp honey

1 tsp rice vinegar

For the Fried Rice:

3 cups cooked jasmine rice (day-old works best)
1 lb boneless chicken thighs, diced

2 eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen peas & carrots
3 green onions, sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for GF)
1 tbsp sesame oil

Salt & pepper to taste
Oil for frying

👩🍳 Instructions

1️⃣ Make the Bang Bang Sauce

Mix all sauce ingredients in a bowl. Set aside.

2️⃣ Cook the Chicken

Heat oil in a wok/large skillet over high heat.
Season chicken with salt/pepper, then cook until golden and crispy (~5 mins). Remove and set aside.

3️⃣ Scramble the Eggs

In the same pan, scramble eggs until just set. Remove and set aside.

4️⃣ Stir-Fry the Rice

Add a bit more oil, then sauté garlic and veggies for 1 min.
Add rice, breaking up clumps. Stir-fry 2 mins.
Pour in soy sauce and sesame oil, tossing to coat.

Return chicken and eggs to the pan, mixing well.

5️⃣ Finish & Serve

Drizzle with Bang Bang sauce (reserve some for dipping).
Garnish with green onions and extra sriracha if desired.

💡 Pro Tips

✔ Use cold rice (fresh rice turns mushy).
✔ Extra crispy chicken? Toss in cornstarch before frying.
✔ Vegetarian? Swap chicken for tofu or shrimp.
