Crockpot Buffalo Chicken


I found this recipe on Pinterest and have been addicted ever since we made it. It was so easy to make and so so good. You could use this chicken in a sandwich, a wrap, over chips, etc. We ate it in sandwiches, and then again over chips. I didn't have to adapt much from the original recipe. This recipe makes a lot especially just for 2 (My daughter didn't like it but I'm convinced someday she will). I might make a smaller version of it next time.

Ingredients
3 lbs frozen chicken breast
1 bottle of Franks Red Hot Sauce
1 packet of Ranch Mix - The generic Cub brand was the only Ranch Mix that didn't have buttermilk in it. If you can't find a mix without buttermilk just add your own spices. Try this recipe without the dry buttermilk.

Buns - Udis are great!
DF Mozzeralla Cheese (optional)

Directions
Put the frozen chicken in the crockpot. Pour the bottle of hot sauce over it and sprinkle the ranch mix on the chicken. Cook on low for 6 to 7 hours.

Once the chicken is cooked, pull it apart. You will know it's ready when the chicken easily falls apart. Cook for another hour so the chicken can absorb more of the hot sauce flavor.

Serve on a bun and top with mozzarella cheese. Enjoy!
