1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Preparation:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, combine the chicken breasts with soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight, in the refrigerator.
2. Cook the Chicken: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill or pan-sear the marinated chicken breasts until cooked through and slightly charred. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: Steam or stir-fry the mixed vegetables until crisp-tender.
4. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the cooked rice among bowls. Top with the sliced chicken, steamed vegetables, kimchi, pickled red onion, and a fried egg.
5. Add the Finishing Touches: Sprinkle with sesame seeds and fresh cilantro. Serve immediately with Sriracha on the side.
Total Time: 30 minutes (excluding marinating time)
