Day 7 One Pan Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Rice

✨ 7 Days of Work Lunches ✨ Day 7: One Pan Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Rice So I LOVE me a good one pan rice, and I think that this Buffalo chicken version is one of my all time faves 😮‍💨 It’s full of flavour, is packed full of protein, and is the perfect work meal prep 🫶🏼 Simply divide into 3 servings, then microwave until PIPING hot when you’re ready to eat, and you’re set 🙌🏼 📌 SAVE SAVE SAVE to give it a go ♥️ 📍 Makes 3 portions (easily doubled) 📍 411 Calories & 55.4g Protein per serving (excluding the toppings) ✨500g Chicken Breast, diced ✨1 Onion, finely diced ✨A few sticks of Celery, finely sliced ✨ 1 tbsp Garlic Granules ✨250g Basmati Rice, uncooked ✨600ml hot Chicken Stock ✨ 100ml Buffalo Sauce (this makes it fairly spicy so feel free to use less) ✨60g reduced fat Cheddar, grated ✨Optional (but highly recommended) - Low Fat Ranch Dressing & chopped Spring Onions, to serve - Spray a pan well with some cooking spray, then add in your onions and celery and fry for about five minutes over a medium to high heat until softened. Next add in your garlic granules, along with a good pinch of salt, and cook for another few minutes. - Once the vegetables have softened add in your chicken and allow to cook for a few minutes, or until browned around the edges. - Next add in your uncooked rice, stir through the other ingredients, then pour over your hot chicken stock and buffalo sauce; bring to a boil, reduce the heat, pop on a lid and allow to simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender, adding a little more liquid if needed. - Once the rice is cooked, turn the heat under the pan off and sprinkle over your cheddar; pop the lid back on top and leave for a few minutes to allow the cheese to melt. And that is literally it! Top with the any toppings if you fancy, then dive straight in - or pop in the fridge for up to 3 days ♥️
