Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cups cooked rice (white or brown)

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing

  • Optional: sliced avocado, for topping

Instructions

  1. Make the Buffalo Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the hot sauce and melted butter until well combined. Set aside.
  2. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and thoroughly cooked.
  3. Add the Sauce: Lower the heat and pour the buffalo sauce over the cooked chicken. Stir to coat evenly and let it simmer for 3-5 minutes.
  4. Assemble the Bowls: Add a layer of cooked rice into each bowl and top with buffalo chicken mixture.
  5. Add Toppings: Pile shredded lettuce, cherry tomatoes, cheddar cheese, and drizzle ranch or blue cheese dressing on top.
  6. Garnish: Finish with sliced green onions and optional sliced avocado.
  7. Serve: Enjoy your buffalo chicken bowls hot and fresh!

Notes

Use quality hot sauce for best flavor. Adjust hot sauce to your heat preference. Pre-cook rice for quicker meal prep.
