Ingredients
Chicken
- 2 Chicken Breasts, cooked and diced
- ¼ cup Honey Garlic Sauce
- ¼ cup Buffalo Wing Sauce (or plain hot sauce like Frank’s Red Hot)
Salad
- 2 heads Romaine Lettuce, chopped and washed
- 3-6 Tablespoons Ranch Dressing (or any dressing of choice)
- ½ medium Red Onion, diced
- 1 large Red Bell Pepper, diced
- ½ large Cucumber, diced
- Cheese, shredded (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: In a small bowl, combine the cooked and diced chicken with the honey garlic sauce and buffalo wing sauce. Toss well to ensure the chicken is fully coated with the sauces.
- Dress the Lettuce: In a separate large bowl, toss the chopped romaine lettuce with your preferred amount of ranch dressing or dressing of choice, ensuring the leaves are lightly but evenly coated.
- Assemble the Salad: Transfer the dressed lettuce onto two large plates or bowls. Top each serving with diced red onion, diced red bell pepper, diced cucumber, and shredded cheddar cheese if using. Finally, add the honey hot chicken mixture on top. Serve immediately for best freshness and flavor.
Notes
- You can adjust the spiciness by varying the amount of buffalo wing sauce or using a milder hot sauce.
- For a lighter option, substitute ranch dressing with low-fat or vinaigrette dressings.
- Optional shredded cheese adds extra creaminess and flavor but can be omitted for a dairy-free salad.
- Cook chicken breasts by grilling, baking, or pan-frying according to preference before dicing and mixing.
- Salad is best enjoyed fresh to maintain the crisp texture of vegetables.
