Savor Each Bite of Buffalo Chicken Bowls for Your Next Dinner

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or chicken thighs for more flavor)
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (or olive oil for a dairy-free option)
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown; quinoa works as a healthier alternative)
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce (or spinach for added nutrition)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved (or diced bell peppers)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or dairy-free cheese if needed)
  • 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing (or dairy-free dressing for dietary preferences)
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions (or mixed herbs)
  • 1 sliced avocado (optional, for creaminess and healthy fats)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the hot sauce and melted unsalted butter until fully blended. Set aside.
  2. Drizzle olive oil into a large skillet and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until golden and cooked through.
  4. Once cooked, reduce heat to low and pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken, simmering for 3-5 minutes.
  5. Divide the cooked rice evenly among serving bowls as a base.
  6. Place the buffalo chicken mixture on top of the rice in each bowl, spooning on extra sauce.
  7. Top with shredded lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes.
  8. Sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese and drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing.
  9. Garnish with sliced green onions and avocado if desired. Serve immediately.
