Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and lime juice. Add the chicken, coat fully, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add oil to prevent sticking. Cook the marinated chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until caramelized and cooked through. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, honey, and lime juice over low heat. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until thickened.
  4. Cook jasmine rice according to package instructions. Fluff with a fork and keep warm.
  5. To assemble, scoop warm jasmine rice into bowls, top with sliced chicken, and drizzle with coconut lime sauce. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges. Optionally, sprinkle chili flakes on top.
