Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear. Drain well.
  • Add rice, 1 cup (2 cups) water and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Once water is boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. (NOTE: Reduce heat to low if water is boiling over.)
  • Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep and make vinaigrette
2
  • Meanwhile, cut cucumber into 1/4-inch rounds.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Add lime juice, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) sugar to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Cook chicken
3
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
  • Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Add chicken, Thai Seasoning and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to another medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. 
  • When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then chicken. Cook, flipping halfway, until golden-brown and cooked through, 4-5 min.**
Make sauce and finish chicken
4
  • Meanwhile, combine soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, sweet chili sauce and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water in a small bowl.
  • When chicken is done, add chili sauce mixture to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until sauce thickens and coats chicken, 1-2 min. Season with pepper.
Make salad and finish rice
5
  • Add cucumbers and spring mix to the bowl with vinaigrette, then toss to combine.
  • Add lime zest and half the cilantro to the pot with rice, then fluff with a fork.
Finish and serve
6
  • Divide lime-cilantro rice between plates, then top with chicken. Squeeze a lime wedge over top.
  • Sprinkle peanuts and remaining cilantro over top.
  • Serve salad alongside.
