A comforting and delicious Buffalo Chicken Bowl that combines juicy chicken, vibrant veggies, and spicy Buffalo sauce for a satisfying meal.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken (breast or thighs)
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup rice or quinoa
  • 1 cup assorted vegetables (bell peppers, carrots, corn)
  • Green onions, chopped
  • Shredded cheese
  • Avocado, sliced
  • Ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Start by cooking your rice or quinoa according to package instructions. Fluff it up and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, add a splash of olive oil over medium heat. Toss in diced chicken, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté until the chicken is fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Pour in your Buffalo sauce and let it simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is adequately coated.
  4. While the chicken simmers, chop your vegetables and prepare your toppings.
  5. To assemble your Buffalo Chicken Bowl, spoon the rice or quinoa into bowls, top it with the saucy chicken, and finish with your chosen veggies and toppings.
  6. Drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing for that creamy finish.

Notes

For a vegetarian twist, substitute chicken with tofu or chickpeas, and use cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
