Buffalo Chicken is a flavorful dish that originated in Buffalo, New York, known for its spicy, tangy sauce made from hot pepper sauce and butter. Typically featuring tender, juicy chicken, it can be grilled, baked, or fried, making it versatile for any meal. This dish is often served with a creamy blue cheese or ranch dressing, adding a cooling contrast to the heat. While it delivers a delicious kick, it can be high in calories and saturated fat, especially when fried. However, using lean chicken and baking instead of frying offers a healthier option, letting you enjoy that bold Buffalo flavor without the guilt!
