Instructions
- In a medium bowl combine the tapioca starch, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika. Add in the cubed chicken and toss until well coated.
- In a large non-stick skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat and add in the chicken. Let pan fry for 5-8 minutes before flipping and cooking for another 5-8 minutes until golden brown and fully cooked.
- While the chicken cooks, in a large bowl mix the sauce ingredients (with just 1 tablespoon mayo) and set aside about ¼ cup of the sauce.
- Transfer the chicken to a paper towel (optional), then add it to the large sauce bowl and toss until fully coated.
- Add more avocado oil to the pan and bring up to medium-high heat. Add in the carrots, cook for about 10 minutes. Then add cabbage and seasoning, cook for another 5-7 minutes until the veggies start to soften.
- While the veggies cook, divide the rice and fresh cucumber equally between 4 bowls. Drizzle lime juice over each one.
- Assemble the bowls – divide the cooked veggies and chicken over each bowl, top with green onions and black sesame seeds. Drizzle each bowl with extra sauce and enjoy!
