Description

A spicy Buffalo Chicken Sandwich recipe featuring juicy grilled chicken coated in tangy buffalo sauce, served on a toasted bun with crisp lettuce, tomato, and blue cheese or ranch dressing. This sandwich is quick to make and perfect for a weeknight dinner or casual gathering.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 5 oz each)
  • 1 cup Buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 4 leaves lettuce
  • 4 slices tomato
  • 1/4 cup blue cheese dressing (or ranch or blue cheese mix)

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill or skillet over medium heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  3. In a small bowl, mix Buffalo sauce and melted butter.
  4. Brush or toss chicken breasts in the buffalo-butter sauce.
  5. Cook chicken until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), turning and basting with extra sauce as it cooks.
  6. Lightly toast buns on the grill or in a pan while chicken finishes.
  7. To assemble, place a lettuce leaf and tomato slice on the bottom bun, add the chicken, drizzle with blue cheese dressing, and top with the other bun.

Notes

  • For a milder sandwich, reduce the amount of buffalo sauce or add more butter.
  • Chicken thighs can be used instead of breasts for extra juiciness.
  • Sturdy hamburger buns, brioche, or potato buns work well; toasting is recommended.
  • Chicken can be baked at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Serve with fries, a side salad, or celery sticks with extra dressing for dipping.
  • Leftover cooked chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave, adding extra sauce if needed. Assemble sandwiches fresh to prevent soggy buns.
