Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Chicken breast
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 cup Hot sauce (Keto-friendly)
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 piece Avocado
- 0.25 cup Blue cheese crumbles
- 2 tablespoons Ranch dressing (Keto-friendly)
Instructions
Begin by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
While the chicken is cooking, in a small saucepan over low heat, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and mix it with the hot sauce. Stir to combine and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet and brush it generously with the buffalo sauce.
Prepare the sandwiches by placing a piece of lettuce on each plate as the bottom 'bun'.
Slice the avocado and divide the slices evenly between the two lettuce leaves.
Place the buffalo chicken breast on top of the avocado slices.
Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles equally over each piece of chicken.
Drizzle with Keto-friendly ranch dressing for extra flavor.
Top each sandwich with another lettuce leaf to complete the 'bun'.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Buffalo Chicken Sandwich.
