Buffalo Chicken Chili

Buffalo Chicken Chili

If you love the flavor of buffalo chicken, you'll have to try this easy buffalo chicken chili! I started with a recipe I found on Pinterest, but the version below is the one I that made.

You will need:

• 1 pound of ground chicken
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 half of a diced onion
• 1/2 cup chopped carrots
• 1/2 cup chopped celery
• 15 oz diced tomatoes
• 15 oz canned white beans (drained)
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp oregano
• 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 to 3/4 cups of hot sauce
• cheese for topping (bleu cheese, feta, cheddar)(optional)
• sour cream (optional)

To make this chili, cook the ground chicken. Add the oil to a pot, along with the onion, carrots, and celery, cooking them for about 10 minutes. Add the chicken, garlic, oregano, paprika, cayenne pepper, tomatoes, and beans. Stir in the chicken broth and hot sauce, and let simmer on low heat for 10 minutes, until hot. Top with your choice of cheese or toppings, and enjoy!

This a great twist on chicken chili, with a kick of spicy buffalo wing flavor!

Try it in the crockpot!

These buffalo chicken tacos are extremely easy to make! Prep time is 10-15 minutes.

You will need:

• 6 crunchy taco shells
• 12 ounces shredded chicken
• 1/4 cup hot sauce
• 1/4 cup ranch dressing (can use bleu cheese if desired)
• Shredded cheddar or other cheese of your choice
• Cole slaw (you can find this with the pre-packaged salad in your grocery store)

Mix the chicken together with the hot sauce and ranch dressing in a small bowl. Arrange your taco shells on a baking sheet, and preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Fill the taco shells with shredded chicken, and top with cheddar cheese.

The stand up taco shells will be much easier for this, because at least one of the regular taco shells will fall over. However, if you have the regular taco shells, just be sure to stuff the cheese back in if they tip over. Bake the shells for about 5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.

Add the cole slaw to the tacos, and enjoy!

The cole slaw adds a nice crunch to the taco, and offsets the spiciness of the chicken, while baking it all together not only heats up the chicken, but melts the cheese on top to help hold the contents together. That way, when you bite into your taco, it doesn't crack apart into so many pieces!
