Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken

Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken ~ Who Needs a Cape?

So we all love Buffalo Chicken on here.  I mean we have a dip, and a crockpot meal, but I decided to try to take my dip and make it more dinner like.  I decided to take the chicken out of the dip and use the dip on top of a chicken breast for lack of better words.  So here it goes.

 

Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces of softened cream cheese
  • 1 cup of sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup of hot sauce (I use Pete's)
  • Chicken (I use boneless Chicken breasts, but any skinless chicken will work)

Instructions

  1. Mix the cream cheese, hot sauce and half of the cheese together.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  3. Take chicken (I used 3 HUGE chicken breasts and I like TONS of sauce so I'm sure you could use 4 regular breasts or 6 thighs and have plenty) and put into a baking dish and spread the dip on top.
  4. Cover with remaining cheddar.
  5. Bake around 30-40 minutes until chicken is done.

Yup.  It really is that easy.

Voila.  Dinner.  In like 45 minutes including baking time.  I wasn’t sure how this would turn out, and you know what?  It was amazing.  Chicken was super moist and tender, the topping added some spice but not so hot that you had to sweat.  It was a really yummy meal.  I’m putting it into the rotation because it was so quick and easy!

      I’m totally thinking it could be crockpotted (is that a word?). Just won’t get the golden brown on the top layer of cheese! let me know if you do cook it in the crockpot – totally curious!

        I use Crockpotted. :D It’s a word now! I’ve got next week’s menu planned already, but I’ll definitely add it to the next one and let you know!

  6. You have made me a fan of the crockpot, so with that in mind can this be made in the crockpot? My concern is will the cream cheese curdle or become nasty?

      I will be honest Carol, I have never made it in the crockpot so I really don’t know. I know that other cream cheese things (think dips, etc) are made in the crockpot and are fine…my guess is that it could be made in there :) If you make it in there – let us know!
