A flavor-packed, macro-friendly BBQ Ranch Chicken Bowl loaded with juicy grilled chicken, crisp veggies, and creamy ranch-BBQ drizzle. High in protein, customizable for any diet, and meal-prep approved.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 bowls 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs grilled chicken breast (seasoned with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt)
  • 2 cups cooked brown rice or cauliflower rice
  • ½ cup sugar-free BBQ sauce (e.g., G Hughes)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt ranch dressing
  • ½ cup corn
  • ½ cup black beans
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ red onion, sliced
  • 1 avocado, sliced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Grill or air fry chicken breast seasoned with smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and olive oil spray. Cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F, then let rest and slice.
  2. Prepare your base: cook brown rice or microwave cauliflower rice with garlic and onion powder. Portion ½ to 1 cup per container.
  3. Assemble bowls starting with rice, then layer beans, corn, chicken, and fresh veggies. Add avocado if using.
  4. Store in glass containers for up to 4 days. Keep sauces separate to avoid sogginess.
  5. When ready to eat, microwave for 90 seconds, then drizzle with BBQ sauce and ranch dressing. Optional: top with crushed tortilla chips or herbs for extra flavor.

Notes

Customize macros by swapping rice for cauliflower, skipping beans, or adding cheese. Store sauce separately to maintain freshness and texture. Don’t overcook the chicken—juicy is key!
