Instructions
 

Prepare the Rice

  • Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan. Add the rice and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until lightly toasted.
  • Add 2 cups of water and 1/2 tsp salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.

Cook the Chilly Chicken

  • Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a wok or large pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add the cubed chicken and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until browned.
  • Season with salt and black pepper. Stir well to coat the chicken evenly.
  • Stir in the sweet chili sauce and soy sauce (if using). Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Combine and Serve

  • Add the cooked rice to the pan with the chicken. Stir gently to combine.
  • Stir in the grated cheese until melted and distributed throughout the rice and chicken.
  • Remove from heat and garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Adjust the amount of sweet chili sauce to your preferred level of spiciness. Start with less and add more to taste.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables, such as bell peppers, onions, or broccoli, to the chicken stir-fry for added nutrition and flavor.
  • If you prefer a creamier dish, stir in a tablespoon or two of heavy cream or coconut milk at the end.
