Step 1

In a 3-4 quart pot, bring the water to a boil. Rinse the rice under cold water for up to one minute, removing any excess starch.

Step 2

Add the rice to the boiling water. Reduce the heat just enough to maintain a steady boil. Boil, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Right before the rice is done cooking (3-5 minutes) add the cauliflower rice to the pot and cook until tender.

Step 3

Drain in a fine mesh strainer and then return to the pot. Cover the pot and let the rice rest, off the heat, for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork, add in the chopped scallions and set aside.

Step 4

Fill a medium pot with 1-2 inches of water and bring to a simmer. Put a steamer basket in the pot and place the green beans inside. Place a lid on the pot and steam for 5-7 minutes or until tender (but still crisp).

Step 5

Transfer the beans to a medium-sized bowl. Add in crushed garlic, tomatoes, and avocado oil. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 6

Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces, transfer into a bowl and season with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Toss that together making sure all of the chicken is lightly coated with the spices.

Step 7

Heat avocado oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully add the chicken to the pan, making sure it is in a single layer. Sauté for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and then flip the chicken bites and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until cooked through.

Step 8

Turn the heat to low and stir in 1/2 cup of buffalo sauce (I am using Primal Kitchen). Gently toss the chicken in the sauce until all the chicken bites are lightly coated in buffalo sauce. Turn off the heat.

Step 9

I like to use the 3-cup Pyrex containers to prep and store these bowl. Evenly divide the rice mixture, buffalo chicken bites, and green beans amongst 4 containers, layering them next to one and other.

Step 10

Drizzle 1 tbsp of ranch dressing over the top and enjoy! Or, place on a lid and store in the fridge for up to five days. Heat and enjoy when ready to eat. *Don’t add the ranch dressing until you are ready to eat.
