Description

A delicious Coconut Chicken Rice Bowl made with tender chicken, fragrant jasmine rice, and creamy coconut milk.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 pound chicken breast, diced
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Sliced green onions, for garnish
  • Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Combine jasmine rice, coconut milk, chicken broth, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a pot. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced chicken and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes.
  3. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve in bowls topped with the chicken.
  4. Customize with your favorite toppings, such as cilantro, green onions, and lime wedges.

Notes

To avoid mushy rice, don’t overcook and ensure even chicken pieces for balanced cooking.
