  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cooked jasmine rice on a baking tray, drizzle with chili oil and soy sauce, and toss. Bake for 20 minutes, stirring at the 10 and 15-minute marks, until crispy.
  3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together peanut butter, minced garlic, sriracha, rice vinegar, and soy sauce. Gradually add water until achieving desired consistency.
