Notes
Step 5
Storing and reheating
Step 6
You can store these sweet chili chicken bowls up to 5 days in the fridge. To reheat, sprinkle some water overtop so that the chicken doesn't dry out, then microwave for 2-3 minutes. You can also leave the toppings off and add them fresh after reheating to ensure an extra bit of crunch, but that's optional.
Step 7
Freezing sweet chili chicken
Step 8
You can freeze the rice and chicken separately, but unfortunately the veggies won't hold up. Freeze the chicken and rice up to 3 months each, then you can defrost in the fridge for 24 hours before reheating as per the instructions above.
