Buffalo Chicken Potato Casserole
If you are a lover of hot wings or anything buffalo flavored.....then this dish is for you! Let me tell you, this is some serious comfort food. I came across this recipe on Pinterest , emailed it to the hubby asking what he thought, his response " ? I don't know". He loves hot wings so I figured why not, we'll give it a try.
I decided to cut the recipe in half since it makes a huge 9x13 pan and that way if we didn't like it we wouldn't be throwing out a whole pan of food. Our family seriously devoured the pan, even the kids! It was a little on the spicy side for them but everyone loved it. I'm thinking this would make a good side dish for a potluck, while it's definitely filling, it's certainly not healthy by any means....but it's okay to indulge every once in a while right?
I did make a few changes to the original recipe. Like I said, I did cut everything in half. I also had a couple of bone-in chicken breasts to use up, I cooked them in the crockpot during the day and used already cooked chicken. The original states to put your uncooked meat in the pan and let it bake altogether. We also decided next time we would add more cheese and more of the cracker crumb topping. You can follow my recipe below or make your own changes, whichever you decide I'm sure you'll love this dish just as much as we did! Enjoy!
