Description

Delicious and spicy cheesy buffalo chicken sandwiches perfect for a quick meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)
  • 1 cup Buffalo sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 hoagie rolls
  • 1 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/2 cup sliced pickled jalapeños (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken:

    • In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add shredded chicken and stir in the Buffalo sauce.
    • Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper over the chicken. Mix well.
    • Allow the chicken mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes until heated through.
  2. Add Cheese:

    • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken. Cover the skillet and let it melt for about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Prepare the Rolls:

    • Lightly toast the hoagie rolls under a broiler or in a toaster oven until golden brown.
  4. Assemble the Sandwiches:

    • Place a generous amount of the cheesy Buffalo chicken mixture on each hoagie roll.
    • Drizzle ranch dressing over the chicken.
    • Top with sliced pickled jalapeños if desired for an extra kick.

Notes

  • For a spicier sandwich, add more Buffalo sauce or use a spicier hot sauce variant.
  • To add more texture, consider mixing in some chopped celery or shredded lettuce.
  • If using leftover rotisserie chicken, reduce cooking time as the chicken is already cooked.
  • Customize the level of cheese according to your preference for extra creaminess.
