Ingredients

For the Bang Bang Sauce

1/4 cup mayonnaise Yogurt can be used as a substitute for a tangy flavor.
2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon sriracha Adjust to taste.
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
to taste Salt and pepper

Main Ingredients

2 pieces chicken breasts Use fresh, organic chicken for best results.
2 cups cooked brown rice Can be seasoned with salt or garlic powder.
Fresh parsley For garnish.

Method

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper to create the Bang Bang sauce.
Place chicken breasts in a baking dish and brush them generously with the sauce.

Cooking

Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Serving

Serve the chicken over warm brown rice, drizzling extra sauce on top, and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

For best flavor, marinate the chicken in the sauce for a couple of hours. This dish works well with other proteins like shrimp or tofu, and you can add veggies or serve with quinoa for a twist.
