Our take on the viral Crispy Rice Salad has all of the delicious crispiness with a touch of heat. We added chili crisp to both our rice mixture and our dressing for extra crunch!

Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Mix rice with toasted sesame oil, tamari, and chili crisp and spread in an even layer on a parchment lined baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes until crispy. It may take a little longer depending on your oven.
While the rice crisps up, make the dressing. Whisk together tahini, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, chili crisp and maple syrup. Add a splash of water if needed to get a nice consistency.
In a large bowl mix together cabbage, cucumber, peas, mango, green onion, and cashews.
Add cooled crispy rice and dressing, tossing well to combine. Adjust with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately for maximum crispiness.
