Directions

1Heat toasted sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook for about 1 minute, or until fully melted if using frozen cubes.

3While the chicken cooks, make the peanut sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sriracha, lime juice, honey, and water.
4Add the sauce to the skillet with the ground chicken and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
5Cook the rice according to package directions. Add rice to shallow bowls.
