A delicious and flavorful Sweet Chili Chicken Bowl topped with a creamy coconut lime drizzle.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb chicken breasts or thighs
  • ½ cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp lime juice

  • ½ cup shredded carrots
  • 2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Mix sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger. Marinate chicken slices in the mixture for at least 20 minutes.
