⅔ cup, plus 2 tablespoonslow-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
2 teaspoons grated ginger
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
1 teaspoon, plus 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
Chili flakes, to taste
4 chicken cutlets, or 2boneless chicken breasts, sliced in half horizontally
1 cup Panko
1 bag frozen shelled edamame, thawed and removed from the shells
3-4 cups rice, cooked
Cucumber, sliced thinly and soaking in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt for at least 10 min
Avocado, short slices
(Spicy mayo) ⅓ cup olive oil mayo
(Spicy mayo) 1 tablespoonsriracha
(Spicy mayo) 2 teaspoonssoy sauce or tamari
(Spicy mayo) 1 teaspoonhoney
In a medium bowl, combine ⅔ cup tamari/soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, ginger, green onion, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, and chili flakes.
Place the chicken in a bowl and pour over 3-4 tablespoons of the sauce, save the rest for serving. Let the chicken sit at least 10 minutes.
While the chicken is in the sauce, prepare the spicy mayo and the pickled cucumbers.
Place the Panko and 3 tablespoons sesame seeds in a shallow bowl. Dredge both sides of the chicken through the Panko, pressing to adhere by using your fist to pound the crumbs in. Place the chicken on a plate.
Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium (panko burns easily). Add the chicken and cook until golden brown, 3-4 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 3-4 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board.
Add the edamame to the skillet, cook a few minutes until your desired crispiness.
To assemble, slice the chicken into thin strips. Add the rice to bowls, top with cucumber, avocado, chicken, and green onions. Spoon over the spicy mayo.
