Ingredients:
- Spicy Maple Chicken:
- 1 lb chicken breast or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
Coconut Rice:
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup water
- Pinch of salt
- Optional Garnishes:
- Fresh cilantro, chopped
- Lime wedges
- Toasted coconut flakes
- Sliced green onions
Instructions
- Step 1: Rinse jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice, coconut milk, water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.
- Step 2: In a bowl, whisk together maple syrup, sriracha, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic, and ginger. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then toss it in the marinade. Let sit for 10-15 minutes.
- Step 3: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken, cooking for 4-5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Pour in any remaining marinade and let simmer for 2 minutes to coat the chicken in the sauce.
- Step 4: Serve the Spicy Maple Chicken over a bed of coconut rice. Garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, toasted coconut flakes, and sliced green onions, if desired.
