Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups cooked white rice
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup pineapple chunks (canned or fresh)
- 0.5 cup toasted coconut flakes
- 0.5 cup chopped green onions
- 0.5 cup chopped roasted peanuts
- 1 cup chow mein noodles
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (optional)
- 0.5 cup sweet and sour sauce
Instructions
Cook the white rice according to package instructions if it hasn’t already been prepared. Set aside and keep warm.
In a small bowl, mix the shredded chicken with the soy sauce. Heat in a skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes or until warmed through. Set aside.
Prepare your toppings: drain the pineapple chunks, toast the coconut flakes (if they aren't pre-toasted), chop the green onions, and dice the bell peppers if using.
To assemble, begin by adding 1 cup of warm rice to a plate or shallow bowl as the base.
Top the rice with 1/2 cup of soy sauce-seasoned chicken.
Layer on your desired toppings: a few pineapple chunks, a sprinkle of toasted coconut flakes, chopped green onions, chopped peanuts, and chow mein noodles for crunch.
Optional: Add diced bell peppers and drizzle sweet and sour sauce over the top for added flavor.
Repeat the assembly process for remaining servings. Serve immediately and enjoy!
