Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Marinate the chicken by combining the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, and chili flakes in a bowl. Add chicken, coat well, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Prepare the coconut lime drizzle by whisking together coconut milk, mayonnaise, lime juice, lime zest, sriracha, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Cover and chill until ready to use.
  3. Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat, lightly grease it, and grill the marinated chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until cooked through. Let it rest before slicing.
  4. Cook rice according to package instructions, about 15-20 minutes, then fluff with a fork.
  5. Assemble each bowl with a base of rice, topped with sliced grilled chicken, and drizzle the coconut lime sauce over it. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges.
