Description

A colorful and healthy bowl featuring grilled chicken and fresh veggies, topped with ranch dressing for a delightful crunch.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 boneless, skinless chicken breast
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 cup carrots, sliced and steamed or sautéed
  • 1 cup chopped romaine lettuce
  • 1/2 cup sliced cucumbers
  • 2 tbsp ranch dressing (or light version if preferred)

Instructions

  1. Season & Grill the Chicken: Toss the chicken breast in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Grill or pan-sear for about 6 to 7 minutes on each side until golden brown and juicy.
  2. Cook the Carrots: Steam or sauté the sliced carrots with a pinch of salt and parsley until tender.
  3. Chop Fresh Veggies: Wash and chop the romaine lettuce and slice the cucumber into thin rounds.
  4. Build the Bowl: In a large bowl, arrange the grilled chicken, cooked carrots, chopped lettuce, and cucumber.
  5. Add the Dressing: Drizzle the ranch dressing over the top just before serving.

Notes

For added flavor, consider marinating the chicken before grilling. Leftover chicken can be used to save time.
