Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add 1 pound of cubed boneless skinless chicken breast to the pan and sauté for approximately 10 minutes or until the chicken is nicely browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.
- Once the chicken is browned, add 1 cup of diced onions and 2 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet. Sprinkle in black pepper and salt to taste. Continue cooking for another 5 minutes, stirring frequently until the onions become translucent and fragrant.
- Pour in ¼ cup of buffalo sauce over the chicken mixture, stirring well to evenly coat. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to simmer and thicken slightly.
- While the chicken is simmering, cook 1 cup of dry white rice according to package instructions. Bring water to a boil, add the rice, and cover, letting it simmer for about 15 minutes until the rice is fluffy.
- In a small bowl, mix together the remaining buffalo sauce with ½ cup of Greek yogurt. Stir until smooth and creamy.
- In serving bowls, place ¾ cup of the cooked rice as the base. Top each bowl with the cooked buffalo chicken and its flavorful sauce.
- Add an assortment of diced fresh veggies like carrots, celery, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes for crunch and color.
- Finally, sprinkle blue cheese crumbles generously over each assembled bowl.

Notes
Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze the assembled bowls (without fresh veggies) for up to 3 months. Add fresh veggies before serving to maintain their crunch.
