There Is Buffalo Chicken & Then There Is Buffalo Chicken Stuffed With Cheese….
For all you buffalo chicken lovers out there…this one’s for you. This buffalo chicken is spicy and cheesy, which is an absolutely savory combination. At first glance, this looks like a grilled cheese, but it’s even better. It’s grilled cheese but where the bread is actually chicken. Now, what do you think of that?
It’s even a quick dinner because it only takes about half an hour to make and it’s capable of making enough for 4 servings. Perfect for those nights when you’ve had a busy day and just need something to eat before bed.
If you don’t have celery salt, any kind of salt mixture will work to add a salty flavoring. If you want your chicken to be really spicy we recommend you add a little more than what is required from this recipe. If you want it less spicy then don’t add the full 1/4 cup of hot sauce.
