Ingredients

Scale

Protein

  • 1 lb grilled chicken breast, cubed

Grains

  • 3 cups cooked brown rice

Sauce and Toppings

  • 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles
  • 1/2 cup diced celery

Instructions

  1. Prepare Chicken: Toss the grilled, cubed chicken breast with buffalo sauce until all pieces are evenly coated with the spicy sauce, ensuring every bite has a flavorful kick.
  2. Assemble the Bowl: In serving bowls, layer cooked brown rice as the base, followed by the buffalo chicken on top. Add the diced celery for a fresh crunch, and finish by sprinkling blue cheese crumbles over the bowl for a creamy, tangy finish.

Notes

  • Use cooked brown rice that has been fully cooled or freshly made according to package instructions.
  • Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce depending on your preferred spice level.
  • Blue cheese can be substituted with ranch dressing or mozzarella for a milder flavor.
  • Grilling the chicken adds a smoky flavor, but pan-seared or baked chicken works well too.
  • This dish can be served warm or at room temperature.
