Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into bite-sized pieces

  • 1/2 cup buttermilk

  • 1/2 cup cornstarch

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • Oil for frying

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise

  • 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce

  • 1 tbsp sriracha

  • 1 tsp honey

  • 1 tsp lime juice

  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions

  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro (optional)

Directions

  • Marinate the Chicken – In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with buttermilk. Let it sit for at least 5 minutes while you prep everything else.
  • Make the Bang Bang Sauce – In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, honey, and lime juice. Set aside.
  • Coat the Chicken – In a separate bowl, mix the cornstarch, flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off, and coat it in the dry mixture.
  • Fry the Chicken – Heat about 1/2 inch of oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Fry the chicken in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  • Assemble the Bowls – Divide the cooked rice among serving bowls. Top with crispy chicken, shredded carrots, cucumbers, and green onions. Drizzle generously with Bang Bang sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds and cilantro if using.
  • Serve and Enjoy – Mix everything together in your bowl and dig in!
