Buffalo Chicken Sandwich image

Are you looking for something to spice up your life? Can you take the heat? Try this - you'll find out why I make it once a week! This recipe actually is for about 20 frozen wings, but to cut back on the fat content I now use it for 4 defrosted (skinless) boneless chicken breast.

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 defrosted chicken breasts or 20 frozen chicken wings
1/2 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 whole wheat bread or 4 whole wheat rolls, for sandwiches
olive oil (for frying)
1/4 cup butter, melted (we use I Can't Believe its Not Butter, really no difference in taste)
1/4 cup frank red hot sauce
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder or 1 garlic clove, minced very fine
1/2-1 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
red pepper flakes, depending how much heat you want, to taste
sliced tomatoes
iceberg lettuce
bleu cheese salad dressing (optional)

Steps:

  • You will also need: 1 Gallon size storage bag.
  • Preheat skillet on stovetop.
  • Add enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.
  • Combine flour, paprika, and salt in storage bag.
  • Give a good shake to coat pieces.
  • Add coated chicken breasts to heated skillet and fry until nicely browned on both sides.
  • Remove chicken breasts and place on paper towels to drain off excessive oil.
  • Combine melted butter, garlic and cayenne pepper in large bowl.
  • To make a mild sauce, use 1/2 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
  • Read next step if wanting a hotter sauce.
  • Whisk Frank's Red Hot Sauce with the melted butter combo.
  • If dividing the sauce into mild and hot, pour half into another bowl.
  • For the hotter sauce, use up to another 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper.
  • Add whatever amount of red pepper flakes you may like.
  • I just shake it on to semi cover the buffalo sauce.
  • Place cooked chicken breasts inside sauce and coat both sides.
  • Make sandwich and enjoy!
  • Special Note on wings: Flour coat wings frozen!
  • Deep fry frozen wings for about 20-25 minutes.
  • Sauce coat right before eating!
  • Allowing the sauce to sit on the wings will make them gooey.
