Description

Hearty and spicy Buffalo Chicken Bowls with tender chicken, creamy ranch, fresh veggies, and fluffy rice — perfect for a quick meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, diced
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce
  • 1/2 cup diced celery
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken: Sprinkle salt and pepper over the diced chicken breasts.
  2. Cook the chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sauté for 5-7 minutes until it’s cooked through and golden.
  3. Add the sauce: Reduce the heat to low, then pour the buffalo sauce over the cooked chicken. Stir well to coat and let it simmer for an additional 2 minutes.
  4. Assemble the bowls: Take four bowls and divide the cooked rice evenly among them. Top each bowl with the buffalo chicken, followed by shredded lettuce, diced celery, and cheddar cheese.
  5. Finish with dressing: Drizzle ranch dressing over each bowl, then garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

For a vegetarian option, substitute chicken with tofu. Feel free to customize the toppings as per your taste.
