Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and rice vinegar until smooth and creamy.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the diced chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-6 minutes.
  3. In the same pan, pour in the lightly beaten eggs. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring gently until the eggs are just set but still soft.
  4. Add a drizzle of oil back into the skillet and toss in the diced carrots and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Increase the heat to high and add the cold, day-old rice to the pan. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes.
  6. Return the cooked chicken and scrambled eggs to the skillet with the rice. Add soy sauce, stirring well.
  7. Pour the prepared bang bang sauce over the rice mixture, stirring continuously until everything is well-coated.
  8. Remove the pan from heat and garnish your Bang Bang Fried Rice with sliced green onions.
