Method
 

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. In a bowl, toss the diced chicken with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and salt until evenly coated.
  3. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until fully cooked and golden brown.
  4. Reduce heat to low and pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken. Stir to coat evenly and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked rice evenly among serving bowls.
  6. Top the rice with shredded lettuce, diced cherry tomatoes, and shredded cheddar cheese.
  7. Add the buffalo chicken on top of the vegetables and drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing.
  8. Garnish with sliced green onions if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

You can substitute ranch dressing with blue cheese dressing for a tangier flavor. Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce to your spice preference.
