  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– ½ cup Buffalo sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
– ¼ cup unsalted butter
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon pepper
– 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
– Optional: blue cheese or ranch dressing for serving


Instructions

Making Buffalo Chicken is simple and rewarding. Follow these steps to create this incredible dish:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This helps to ensure they roast properly.
3. Season the Chicken: In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
4. Sear the Chicken: Heat the vegetable oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
5. Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the Buffalo sauce until well combined.
6. Coat the Chicken: Pour half of the Buffalo sauce over the seared chicken breasts, making sure they are well coated.
7. Bake the Chicken: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
8. Add More Sauce: Remove the skillet from the oven and brush the remaining Buffalo sauce over the chicken for an extra kick.
9. Rest the Chicken: Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps keep it juicy.
10. Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for a fresh touch before serving.

These straightforward steps will guide you in creating Buffalo Chicken that is sure to impress everyone at your table.
