🔥 How to Make It
-
Prep the Chicken: In a bowl, toss the diced chicken with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Cook It: Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through (about 6–8 mins).

Glaze with Hot Honey: Once cooked, lower the heat and drizzle hot honey over the chicken. Let it bubble and coat the chicken for a minute until sticky and shiny.

Assemble the Bowl: Start with a scoop of warm rice, then top with the glazed chicken, sliced avocado, cucumbers, and pickled onions. Drizzle with sriracha mayo or a yogurt-based sauce, and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
