Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger until smooth and well combined.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and fully cooked through.
Pour the honey glaze over the cooked chicken and let it simmer for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the chicken. Remove from heat.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream or Greek yogurt, lime juice, lime zest, honey, chili garlic sauce, and salt until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Divide the cooked jasmine rice among serving bowls. Top with glazed chicken, shredded carrots, cucumber slices, red bell pepper, and green onions.
Drizzle the creamy lime sauce over each bowl and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

Swap jasmine rice with brown rice or cauliflower rice for a lighter option.

Add steamed broccoli, edamame, or shredded cabbage for extra vegetables and crunch.

For more heat, add extra chili garlic sauce or a drizzle of sriracha.

Store chicken, rice, vegetables, and sauce separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

If the sauce thickens in the refrigerator, stir in a small splash of water or lime juice before serving.
