1/2 cup diced pineapple
1/2 cup diced mango
1/4 cup diced red onion
1 tbsp lime juice
Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
Salt & pepper to taste
Spicy Mayo:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1-2 tsp sriracha (adjust for spice)
1 tsp lime juice
Instructions:
Prepare the Coconut Rice: Rinse jasmine rice, then combine it with coconut milk, water, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until the rice is tender and infused with coconut flavor.
Make the Lemon Ginger Glaze: In a small bowl, mix grated ginger, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, and soy sauce. Set aside.
Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then add to the skillet. Sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes until golden and cooked through. Pour the lemon ginger glaze over the chicken and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens and coats the chicken.
Prepare the Pineapple Mango Salsa: In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, mango, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to mix.
Make the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha, and lime juice until smooth. Adjust spice level to taste.
Assemble the Bowl: Start with a base of coconut rice, add the lemon ginger chicken, and top with pineapple mango salsa. Drizzle with spicy mayo and garnish with fresh cilantro and lime wedges for extra flavor.
This tropical-inspired bowl is the perfect combination of sweet, tangy, and spicy—a fresh and vibrant meal that’s sure to satisfy!
