Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the Heart Smart Bisquick mix, skim milk, and eggs until smooth. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, combine the shredded chicken breast and buffalo sauce until the chicken is evenly coated.
Spread the buffalo chicken mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Drizzle the ranch dressing over the top of the chicken mixture, distributing it evenly.
Pour the Bisquick batter over the chicken mixture, spreading it out carefully to cover as much of the surface as possible.
Sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.
Slice into portions and enjoy your heart-smart buffalo chicken bake!
