Instructions

Marinade Chicken

  1. slice chicken breasts horizontally so that you have thin pieces of chicken. This will make cooking them easier and quicker.

  2. Marinade chicken in buffalo sauce. You can do this while you make the dressing or prep it ahead of time and leave it in the freezer.

Buffalo Ranch

  1. combine mayo, buttermilk, buffalo sauce, chives, and ranch seasoning into a container and blend with immersion blender. You can also use a food processor for this.

  2. Add more buttermilk and salt until you reach your desired consistency and taste.

Cook the Chicken

  1. In one bowl, combine egg and about a quarter cup of buffalo sauce.

  2. In another bowl, pour out your bread crumbs

  3. Dredge the chicken in bread crumbs, then buffalo mixture, then back in the bread crumbs and then place in heated pan with oil. Repeat this step for each piece of chicken.

  4. Cook the chicken for about 3-4 minutes on each side
