    What Is Buffalo Chicken?

    The buffalo wing was the first rendition of this recipe where chicken wings are covered in a spicy buffalo sauce and usually dipped in ranch or blue cheese dip. Since then, people have been creating twists on this game-day favorite. As long as you have the basic ingredients down, you can turn these flavors into the perfect finger food or full meal.

    Common Buffalo Chicken Ingredients

    These recipes are pantry staples and ones you can find at your local grocery store. Stock up on these ingredients and you can bake buffalo chicken anytime.

    • Hot sauce: we love to use frank's red hot sauce because of it's bold, classic flavor, but you could use any buffalo wing sauce.
    • Chicken: some form of chicken breast is typical, but we love to keep it simple and use a rotisserie chicken. We also like to throw chicken breasts in the slow cooker with some olive oil on high for 4-5 hours. Buffalo chicken dip is a great way to use leftover chicken breast.
    • Ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing
    • Sour cream and cheddar cheese: both add fat and soo much flavor to buffalo chicken. Most buffalo chicken recipes are topped with cheese, but if you're dairy-free we have THE BEST healthy buffalo chicken dip recipe.
    • Toppings: Green onions, fresh dill or chives to garnish

    The most famous way to serve buffalo chicken is in dip form. It's creamy, spicy flavor make it a fan favorite for the super bowl. Our dairy free healthy buffalo chicken dip is the best buffalo chicken dip recipe in my opinion!
