Ingredients
10 oz Boneless Chicken Breast Pieces
1 each Poblano Pepper
3 tbsp Roasted Peanuts
¼ cup Cornstarch
3 tbsp Sweet Chili Sauce
2 tbsp Mayonnaise
1 tbsp Sambal Oelek
½ cup Long Grain White Rice
2 each Scallions
How to make it
1
Rinse and drain the rice. Combine with a big pinch of salt and 1 cup water (2 cups for 4 servings) in a medium pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover, and cook undisturbed 13-15 minutes until absorbed and tender. Fluff with a fork.
2
Rinse and dry all produce. Thinly slice the scallions. Stem the peppers, halve lengthwise, seed, and thinly slice crosswise. Wash hands immediately after. In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and as much sambal oelek as you like. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the sliced peppers and scallions; season with salt and pepper. Cook stirring occasionally 2-3 minutes until slightly softened. Transfer to the pot of rice and stir to combine. Cover to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.
3
Pat the chicken dry and place in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the cornstarch and toss to coat. Heat a thin layer of oil in the same pan over medium-high. When a pinch of cornstarch sizzles immediately, add the coated chicken in an even layer (discard excess starch). Cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until lightly browned. Continue stirring frequently 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. USDA minimum: 165°F for chicken.
4
Add the cooked chicken to the bowl of sauce (discarding excess oil from the pan) and stir to coat. Taste and season. Serve the pepper rice topped with the dressed chicken. Garnish with peanuts.
