- Cook the rice. Rinse 1 cup of rice under cold water. Combine with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, let it steam for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork. A rice cooker works great too.
- Make the marinade. Whisk together the marinade ingredients. Set aside ¼ of the marinade for the sauce. Toss chopped chicken with the remaining marinade and let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Prep the veggies. Peel the carrots into thin strips, slice the cucumber, and scoop out the avocado. Defrost the edamame in hot water or the microwave!
- Assemble the bowl. Layer rice in the bowls, add marinated chicken, then arrange the veggies on top. Drizzle with reserved marinade, sprinkle sesame seeds, and add pickled red onions if desired. Enjoy your quick and delicious chicken poke bowl!
