Buffalo Ranch Chicken is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish featuring tender chicken breasts coated in spicy buffalo sauce and zesty ranch seasoning. Perfect for a quick dinner, this recipe combines the tangy heat of buffalo with the creamy, herby notes of ranch, baked or grilled to juicy perfection.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

Sauce and Seasoning

  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which will help the sauce adhere better and promote even cooking.
  2. Coat the chicken: Pour the buffalo sauce into a shallow dish. Add the ranch seasoning mix to the sauce and stir well to combine. Coat each chicken breast thoroughly with the buffalo ranch sauce mixture, ensuring each piece is fully covered.
  3. Cook the chicken: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) or preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If baking, place the coated chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and is no longer pink inside. If grilling, place the chicken on the grill grates and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, again until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  4. Rest and serve: Remove the chicken from the oven or grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute. Serve hot with your choice of sides or salads.

Notes

  • You can adjust the buffalo sauce quantity to control the spiciness level.
  • For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in the buffalo ranch sauce for 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked through by using a meat thermometer.
  • This recipe works well with thinly pounded chicken breasts for even cooking.
