Buffalo Chicken Sliders

Thursday, October 10, 2013

So, I'm actually not a huge fan of the flavor of buffalo sauces out there. My husband is obsessed with buffalo flavoring and whenever we go out for wings he always orders his in this flavor as I jump more towards the teriyaki or a honey bbq. We do not see eye-to-eye on this subject and it is something we both take very seriously as we both are huge fan of wings!!!

One evening at a friends house for "Bachelorette night", where a bunch of us housewives get together and watch the drama unfold and drink and eat till we feel better about our lives, she served a buffalo chicken sandwich that was amazing. She said she got the recipe from Skinny Taste, but added a few things here and there. I had to make this sandwich, the only time in my life I like buffalo sauce! OMG! The hubby is going to shit a brick.



So, after making it the first time, I wasn't too impressed and needed to add some of "me" into the mix. This is a great recipe for game days, weekends, and bad weather. Serve with celery, pickles, maybe even a cole slaw. A ranch dressing on the sandwich wouldn't hurt either :)

Buffalo Chicken Sliders

About 5-7 chicken breasts
1 can of chicken broth
1 celery stalk
1/2 of a white onion, diced
1 tablespoon of minced garlic
1/2 cup hot pepper sauce
Your favorite buffalo sauce
8 oz. cream cheese
1 tablespoon of butter
your choice of favorite rolls

In your crock pot, throw in chicken breasts, broth, celery, onion, garlic, hot pepper sauce. Cook on low for like 6 hours or until chicken is cooked. Drain your mix into a bowl with a stainer and reserve the liquid. Next, throw out the celery and onion. Shred chicken. Return chicken to the crockpot. Add cream cheese, butter, and about 1 cup of reserved liquid. Add more liquid as need until you reach your desired "thickness" of a chicken sandwich. I only added about 1 cup or less since I don't want my chicken to be too runny. Get it? Add in buffalo sauce to the amount that covers enough of the chicken for you. Everyone is different in how much sauce they like so add slowly and stir until you are happy. Add chicken to rolls....eat...it....all!!! Yummy.
