Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and rice vinegar until smooth.

  3. In the same skillet, pour in the lightly beaten eggs and scramble for 2 to 3 minutes until just set. Set aside with the chicken.
  4. Add another tablespoon of oil if needed. Sauté diced carrots and minced garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in green peas and cook for 1 additional minute.
  5. Increase heat to high and add cold, cooked rice. Stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes until heated through and slightly crispy.
  6. Reduce heat to medium and return chicken and eggs to the pan. Drizzle with soy sauce and cook for another 2 minutes.
  7. Drizzle prepared Bang Bang sauce over the rice mixture and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes before serving.
