Description
A speedy, satisfying bowl featuring creamy cottage cheese, tangy BBQ chicken, sweet corn, and crisp peppers, perfect for a protein-packed lunch or light dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup corn, canned or frozen (thawed)
- 1/4 cup diced bell peppers
- 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients. If using frozen corn, thaw it under cold water and drain. Shred the cooked chicken if not already done. Dice the bell pepper and slice the green onions.
- In a medium bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the BBQ sauce. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated in the sauce.
- If you prefer warm chicken, gently warm the BBQ chicken in a microwave for 30–60 seconds or heat it briefly in a skillet. Otherwise use it chilled.
- Layer the cottage cheese at the bottom of two serving bowls. Spoon the BBQ chicken mixture on top, then sprinkle corn, diced bell peppers, and sliced green onions. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
Use good-quality BBQ sauce for the best flavor. An optional squeeze of lime or dash of vinegar can brighten the dish.
