This recipe makes 2 servings!
Ingredients:
Pack of 2 Chicken breasts
2 tsp Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Paprika
Garlic Powder
Onion Powder
6 tsp Sugar free Barbecue Sauce- I used Ray's No Sugar Added
2 Large Handfuls of Spinach
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
2 tbsp Black Beans
1/2 Avocado
Healthier Greek Yogurt Ranch:
4 tbsp Greek Yogurt
1 1/2 tbsp Water
1 tsp Lemon Juice
Pinch of Dried or Fresh Dill
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Directions:
Step#1:
Prepare your Chicken by coating each with about a teaspoon of olive oil and sprinkle with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Step#2:
Air fry chicken on 350 for 10 minutes or bake for 15 minutes on 350. Then, coat chicken with 1 tsp of barbecue sauce on each side. Air fry again at the same temperature for 10-15 minutes or bake for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked. You will know this if the internal temperature is at least 170 or the chicken doesn't have a pink hue to it when you cut into it.
Step#3:
Make the ranch dressing by mixing all of the ingredients. This is optional and can be replaced by any store bought ranch.
Step #4:
Slice the Chicken. Then, prepare your bowls with 1 handful of spinach, 1 tbsp of black beans and 1/2 cup sliced cherry tomatoes. Then add on 1 chicken breast to each salad (or less if desired). Then drizzle with ranch and 1 more tsp of barbecue sauce per salad.
