While the oven is heating, make the bang bang sauce. Whisk togetherthe mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, and a couple of grinds of fresh black pepper in a bowl or glass measuring cup. Taste and add a bit more sweet chili sauce if you like spice. Set aside.
In a small bowl, combine the paprika, chives, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic-infused oil, and 4 Tbsp of the bang bang sauce to make the marinade.
Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl, pour over the marinade, and toss with tongs until the chicken thighs are well coated. Then, transfer the chicken to the lined baking sheet. Make sure the thighs are not touching.
Bake in the oven for 30-40 minutes, until golden and cooked through (internal temperature of 165ºF). If using bone-in chicken thighs bake for an an extra 15-20 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare rice according to package instructions and prep your vegetables.
Once the chicken thighs are cooked through, remove from the oven and slice.
Assemble the Chicken and Rice Bowls starting with the cooked rice, followed by the carrots, cucumber, radish, and green onion. Top with the sliced chicken thighs and a drizzle of the remaining bang bang sauce. Garnish with extra chopped green onion leaves (optional).
