Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp grated ginger
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup sliced cucumbers
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. In a bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes to make the marinade. Reserve half for later.
  2. Add chicken thighs to the remaining marinade, coating evenly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until fully cooked. Brush with reserved marinade during the last 2 minutes.
  4. In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, ketchup, paprika, garlic powder, and rice vinegar to make the yum yum sauce.
  5. Assemble bowls with rice, sliced chicken, carrots, and cucumbers. Drizzle with yum yum sauce and serve.
