Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup brown rice cooked according to package instructions
  • 1 cup broccoli florets steamed until tender
  • 1 cup red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes adjust to taste
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise preferably low-fat
  • 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the cut chicken pieces with soy sauce, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Marinate for at least 10 minutes to infuse flavor.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Once hot, add the marinated chicken and sauté for about 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • While the chicken cooks, prepare the Bang Bang sauce by whisking together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and rice vinegar in a separate bowl until smooth and creamy.
  • Once the chicken is cooked, remove from heat and mix with the prepared Bang Bang sauce until well-coated.
  • To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked brown rice among four meal prep containers, then top with the saucy Bang Bang chicken, steamed broccoli, and sliced red bell pepper.
  • Garnish each bowl with additional red pepper flakes if desired and serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Notes
