Equipment
- Non-stick Pan
- Instant-read thermometer
- Cutting Board
- Small Bowl
- Large salad bowl
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 4 ounces boneless, skinless chicken breast thinly sliced
- salt to your taste
- pepper to your taste
- garlic powder to your taste
- 1/4 cup sugar-free BBQ sauce plus extra for drizzling
For the Power Bowl
- 3 cups chopped romaine lettuce or your favorite greens
- 1/3 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese or crumbled blue cheese/Monterey Jack for a twist!
- 1/4 cup sliced avocado
- 1/4 cup shredded carrot
- 2 tablespoons Greek yogurt ranch dressing homemade or store-bought for a lighter option
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion optional, but adds a nice tang!
Instructions
- Warm a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Season your chicken breast on both sides with a pinch of salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook for a few minutes per side until it's fully cooked through (an instant-read thermometer should show 165°F).
- Remove the chicken from the pan, let it rest for about 10 minutes on a cutting board, then dice into bite-sized pieces. In a small bowl, gently toss the diced chicken with ¼ cup of BBQ sauce until coated. If you prefer warm chicken, you can pop it in the microwave for a moment.
- Grab a large salad bowl and add the crisp romaine lettuce. Artfully arrange the BBQ chicken, vibrant cherry tomatoes, creamy sliced avocado, crunchy shredded carrots, and a sprinkle of red onion (if using). Finish your masterpiece with the ranch dressing and a final drizzle of extra BBQ sauce for that irresistible flavor!
Notes
The thinly sliced red onion is optional, but it adds a nice tang to the power bowl!
