Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Coat the chicken pieces thoroughly in this seasoning mix.
Preheat your skillet over medium-high heat, adding vegetable oil until it shimmers.
Carefully place the coated chicken in a single layer in the hot skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. Adjust spice level to your preference.
Place cooked jasmine rice at the base of a bowl. Layer with crispy chicken, followed by lettuce, cucumber, carrots, and green onions. Drizzle with the spicy mayo sauce.
Add sesame seeds on top before serving.

Notes

For a healthier option, substitute chicken with shrimp or tofu.
Adjust the spiciness of the mayo sauce according to preference.
Serve immediately for the best texture.
