Cooking Steps
- Add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Add rice to the boiling water. Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- While rice cooks, peel then mince or grate garlic.
- Trim the bottom of lemongrass, then remove outer layer. Using a rolling pin or heavy pot, carefully smash lemongrass to split open. Finely mince lemongrass.
- Thinly slice green onion.
- Pat chicken dry with paper towels.
- Add chicken, garlic, lemongrass, half the soy sauce, 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Peel, pit, then cut mango into 1/4-inch matchsticks.
- Thinly slice cucumber.
- Zest, then juice lime.
- Add mango, cucumber, half the green onions, half the sweet chili sauce, remaining soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) lime juice and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. (TIP: If you prefer a sweeter slaw, add more sugar, to taste)
- Add chicken to the grill. Close lid and grill until cooked through, 3-5 min per side.** (NOTE: Make sure grill is evenly oiled before adding chicken to prevent sticking!)
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in lime zest and half the peanuts. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Thinly slice chicken, if desired.
- Divide rice, chicken and mango slaw between plates.
- Spread remaining sweet chili sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with remaining green onions.
- Sprinkle remaining peanuts over slaw.
If you've opted for double chicken, prep and cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to prep and cook the regular portion of chicken. Work in batches, if necessary.
