Description
A vibrant BBQ Chicken Mango Bowl blending sweet mango salsa with grilled chicken, jasmine rice, and fresh toppings, perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 1 ripe mango, diced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/2 red onion, diced
- 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt and pepper to taste
- BBQ sauce (to taste)
Instructions
- Cook the rice: Start by cooking the jasmine rice according to the package instructions. This usually takes about 15–20 minutes. Make sure to stir often so it doesn’t stick.
- Prepare the chicken: While the rice is cooking, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Grill or sauté them until fully cooked—about 7-8 minutes on each side.
- Make the mango salsa: In a mixing bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Mix it well and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Assemble the bowl: Once your chicken is done, slice it up and layer it over the cooked rice.
- Add toppings: Top it off with the mango salsa and sliced avocado.
- Drizzle with BBQ sauce: Last but not least, give it a drizzle of BBQ sauce before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
For best results, marinate the chicken in BBQ sauce for an hour. Leftover rice is just as good the next day.
