Instructions
Creating this delicious Sweet Chili Chicken Bowl with Coconut Lime is simple. Just follow these easy steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Season with salt and pepper.
2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add Sauce: Stir in the sweet chili sauce and soy sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the chicken is well coated and the sauce thickens slightly.
4. Prepare the Vegetables: In a separate pot, steam the mixed vegetables until they are tender but still vibrant in color, about 3-5 minutes.
5. Make Coconut Lime Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, lime juice, and lime zest until well combined.
6. Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer the cooked jasmine rice, followed by the sweet chili chicken, steamed vegetables, and drizzle with the coconut lime sauce.
7. Garnish and Serve: Top with fresh cilantro and serve lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
