Serves: 2 |  Serving Size: 1 bowl

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked brown rice
  • 12 ounces boneless skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon chili sauce of choice, plus more for serving
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, divided
  • 10 ounces baby kale
  • 1 green onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup kimchi

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl combine chicken, soy sauce, chili sauce and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Toss to coat chicken and set aside.
  2. Warm a 12-inch skillet over medium-low heat. Add 1/4 cup water along with baby kale, cover, reduce heat to low and cook until kale is tender and wilted. Drain and rinse with cold water until cool. Squeeze, a handful at a time, to remove as much liquid as possible from kale. Transfer to a medium bowl and fluff apart with fingers. Add half the green onion, salt, remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil and sesame seeds. Toss to combine and set aside.
  3. Reheat skillet to medium-high heat, drizzle with olive oil, add chicken. Let cook, undisturbed, until browned. Flip and cook until brown on second side and internal temperature reaches 165*F. Transfer to cutting board and let rest 5 minutes before slicing into bite sized pieces.
  4. Divide rice between 2 serving bowls. Top each bowl with 1/4 kale salad and kimchi. Slice chicken and add to bowls. Garnish with remaining green onion and serve with additional chili sauce to taste. Enjoy!
