Notes

This dish can be customized with additional toppings like sliced avocado or extra sriracha. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave until warm, adding a splash of water to keep it moist. Use tofu or tempeh for a vegetarian option, or shrimp instead of chicken for a seafood twist.
