1
Prepare the Salad Base
Wash and chop the romaine lettuce into bite-sized pieces. Halve the cherry tomatoes and slice the cucumber into thin rounds.

2
Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Rub the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill or cook in the skillet for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
3
Buffalo Sauce Coating
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice the chicken into strips and toss in buffalo sauce until well coated.

4
Combine the Ingredients
In a large bowl, place the chopped romaine lettuce as the base. Add the halved cherry tomatoes and sliced cucumbers on top.
5
Add the Chicken and Dressing
Lay the buffalo chicken strips over the salad base. Drizzle ranch dressing over the top or serve on the side.
