Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and lime juice until smoothly combined. Add the chicken, ensuring they are well-coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
  2. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side until caramelized and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, honey, and lime juice over low heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened, then remove from heat.
  4. Prepare jasmine rice according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork and keep warm.
  5. To assemble, scoop jasmine rice into serving bowls, layer with sliced chicken, drizzle with coconut lime sauce, and garnish with cilantro, lime wedges, and chili flakes.

Notes

Marinate chicken for max flavor. Pound to uniform thickness for even cooking. Store components separately to maintain texture and flavor. Reheat chicken and rice before serving with fresh drizzle.
