Baja Hot Honey Chicken Bowl

Інгредієнти

1 lb (~2.5 cups) cooked/grilled or air-fried chicken, diced

1/4 cup sugar-free (or regular) honey

2 tbsp sriracha

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 cup shredded green cabbage

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

Handful chopped cilantro or green onion

1 avocado, sliced

1 bag (8 oz) Kaizen rice, cooked in salted water

Chipotle Lime Protein Crema:

1/2 cup thick Greek yogurt

2 tbsp mayo

Juice of 2 limes

1/2 tbsp chili lime seasoning

1/2 tsp chipotle powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

Here is how to make it:

1.For the hot honey: Use bottled, or make my macro-friendly at home option: Just add 1/4 cup sugar-free honey, 2 tbsp sriracha, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp soy sauce to a pan on low heat. Stir for about a minute until combined.

2.Add cooked or grilled diced chicken (or rotisserie) to a bowl. Toss your diced chicken in the sauce until fully coated.

3.Make the slaw: combine shredded cabbage, red onion, and chopped cilantro in a bowl. Make sure its super thinly sliced, this is important.

4.Make the protein crema: Blend or shake together the yogurt, mayo, lime juice, seasonings, and spices until smooth. Add half of it to the slaw and toss well. We’ll use the other half to drizzle on a tablespoon or so later.

5.Cook your base. I used my Kaizen low-carb rice, but regular rice, quinoa, or cauliflower rice all work.

6.Build your bowl with rice, chicken, slaw, avocado, and any toppings you like.

7.Drizzle on more crema, sprinkle sesame seeds, top with extra herbs, and dig in.
