Equipment

Ingredients
For the Bang Bang Sauce:
- 1 cup mayo
- 1 tbsp sriracha
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 lime juiced
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp pure granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Bang Bang Chicken Ingredients:
- 1 pound chicken breast cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup bang bang sauce
Garnishings (optional)
- White rice
- Red cabbage sliced thin
- Green onions
- Shredded carrots
- Fresh cucumbers
Instructions
- Combine the ingredients for the bang bang sauce in a mixing bowl or glass jar and whisk it up until smooth. I mix it in a mason jar so I can store the leftovers directly in the jar.
- Next, combine the chicken, paprika, onion powder, pepper, soy sauce, olive oil, and ¼ cup of bang bang sauce. Toss until evenly coated.
- Heat your skillet or pan with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.
- Assemble your plate! Serve the chicken over steamed rice with a colorful bed of shredded cabbage, carrots, cucumbers, and green onions. Don’t forget to drizzle that delicious Bang Bang sauce over everything!
Notes
- Save time by using pre-cut chicken breasts or tenders.
- Feel free to swap the veggies in the slaw for what you have on hand. Broccoli, bell peppers, or snap peas work well.
- If you don't have sriracha, try using a spicy mayo instead for a similar flavor kick.
- Leftover chicken is great for sandwiches, wraps, or stir-fries.
