Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan, add skinless, boneless chicken breasts and cover them with water. Bring to a rolling boil and then reduce to a gentle simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
  2. Once cooked, remove the chicken and let it rest. Shred the chicken into bite-sized pieces using two forks.
  3. Add buffalo wing sauce to the shredded chicken, mixing well until each piece is coated.
  4. In two bowls, spoon cottage cheese as the base. Top with diced celery and shredded carrot. Divide the buffalo chicken mixture over the cottage cheese.
  5. Drizzle ranch dressing on top and sprinkle chopped green onions. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
