Ingredients
– 1 pound chicken breast, boneless and skinless
– 1 cup jasmine rice
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
– 1 tablespoon soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 lime, juiced

Instructions
Creating Delicious Honey Sriracha Chicken Rice Bowls with Creamy Lime Sauce is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions, usually with a 1:1.5 rice-to-water ratio in a pot. Bring to a boil, then simmer on low heat for about 15-20 minutes, or until fluffy.
2. Make the Honey Sriracha Sauce: In a small bowl, mix honey, sriracha sauce, and soy sauce until well combined. Adjust the sriracha to your spice preference.
3. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked and no longer pink in the center.
4. Glaze the Chicken: Pour the honey sriracha sauce over the cooked chicken. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors.
5. Prepare the Creamy Lime Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, and lime juice. Mix until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste.
6. Slice the Chicken: Once the chicken is cooked and glazed, remove it from the skillet. Let it rest for a few minutes, then slice it into strips.
7. Assemble the Bowls: In serving bowls, layer cooked jasmine rice, sliced honey sriracha chicken, and drizzles of creamy lime sauce.
8. Garnish: Top with chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and fresh cilantro if desired.
