For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with cubed tofu or tempeh. Add a touch of sweetness by drizzling a little honey or teriyaki sauce over the finished haystacks. Feel free to experiment with other toppings such as mandarin oranges, water chestnuts, or bean sprouts. To make the dish spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the chicken sauce. Prepare the rice and chop the vegetables ahead of time to save time during assembly.
