Shredded Buffalo Chicken Crockpot Recipe
What's not to love about crockpot recipes?! They take about 5 minutes to throw together, you can leave the house for hours while it cooks and they are delicious!!! This Shredded Buffalo Chicken recipe is one of our family favorites. It combines Buffalo Wing Sauce with Ranch mix to cut the spice just enough so that the little ones will gobble it up too. There is just something about the tangy of Buffalo Chicken and the versatility of being shredded that inspires endless possibilities. We often add this recipe into the monthly meal plan long with these mouthwatering grilled cheese sandwiches and my mom's family secret chicken noodle soup.
This recipe couldn't be any easier! All you need is chicken, buffalo wing sauce and a packet of ranch. It will taste like you slaved on it all day, but really you just dump and cover.
This Buffalo Chicken is amazing on salads!
We also make Buffalo Chicken Sliders on Hawaiian Rolls with a yummy sauce! I'll share details for that below too.
