Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Gluten-Free Chicken Breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 0.5 cup Hot Sauce
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- 2 pieces Gluten-Free Hamburger Buns
- 2 leaves Lettuce Leaves
- 2 slices Sliced Tomatoes
- 4 tablespoons Ranch Dressing
- 2 tablespoons Crumbled Blue Cheese
- 4 slices Pickles (optional)
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder evenly on both sides.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat up.
Place the chicken breasts in the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
While the chicken is cooking, prepare the buffalo sauce by melting the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Once melted, add the hot sauce and whisk until fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and place it in a shallow bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken, ensuring it is fully coated.
Lightly toast the gluten-free hamburger buns either in the skillet or a toaster until golden brown.
To assemble the sandwiches, place a piece of lettuce and a slice of tomato on the bottom half of each bun.
Place the buffalo chicken breast on top of the tomatoes.
Drizzle with ranch dressing and sprinkle with crumbled blue cheese.
Add pickles on top if desired, and finish by placing the top half of the bun on the sandwich.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful gluten-free buffalo chicken sandwich.
