This Build Your Own Rice Bowl Board allows each member of your family to create a dinner plate they’ll love–and actually eat! Picky eaters may just choose chicken and rice, while more adventurous ones may add edamame, spicy Sriracha sauce or cilantro. We’ve been long-time fans of these boards from The Bakermama because they are so family-friendly – and fun! Visit her Instagram and site for more.

INSTRUCTIONS
RICE
- Cook the Texmati rice according to package directions: combine 2 cups rice and 3.5 cups water in a medium saucepan with 1 teaspoon salt and 2 teaspoons butter.
- Bring to a boil; stir once. Cover with a tight-fitting lid or foil; reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let stand (covered) for 5-10 minutes longer. Yields 6 cups of cooked rice.
CHICKEN
- Meanwhile, cook the chicken. Combine the chicken tenderloins and ½ cup teriyaki glaze in a mixing bowl. Gently stir until tenderloins are completely coated in the glaze.
- Add the chicken to a lightly greased large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, brushing with some of the teriyaki glaze when you flip the chicken. Let cook until the chicken is golden brown and the internal temperature of each tenderloin reaches 165°F.
- Remove the cooked chicken to a cutting board and slice into bite-sized pieces. Keep warm until ready to add to the board.
SUNNY-SIDE-UP EGGS
- To fry the eggs with a runny yolk, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Crack the eggs into individual bowls and then pour them into the skillet. Cook until the whites are set, about 2-3 minutes.
- Sprinkle with a little salt and keep warm until ready to transfer to the plate on the board.
BUILDING THE BOARD
- Start building the board by placing a large bowl for the cooked rice in the upper left corner, a medium bowl for the chicken in the upper right corner and a small plate in the bottom right corner for the cooked sunny-side-up eggs.
- Place all of the other toppings in small serving bowls across the board. The cucumbers, radishes, basil, cilantro, avocado and limes can be placed directly on the board.
- Once all of the toppings are on the board, add the cooked rice to the large bowl and the cooked chicken to the medium bowl. Place the cooked eggs on the plate in the bottom right corner of the board.
- Serve the board and let each person build their own rice bowl. Enjoy!
