Let me start off by saying that this was one of the easiest chicken dishes I have ever made, and probably one of the best... Convinced yet to give it a try? Well, you should.
I know I've written here before about how my husband is super picky, so I have been limited to what I cook. Lately, he has been really digging the Frank's Hot Sauce, so I am going with it. We put that sh*t on everything... Not really, but do you remember that commercial? It is hilarious.
I know, I know I am all over with these posts and you're probably like, Heather, just effing get to it. So that is what I will do.
Three ingredients for this recipe... THREE. Maybe four if you are feeling fancy. Frozen chicken (because I can never cook thawed chicken correctly in the Crockpot and it's cheaper), Frank's Buffalo Wing Sauce, and a packet of ranch seasoning. The fourth and optional ingredient is butter... And you technically only need a couple tablespoons of it, but I Paula Deened it tonight (Yes, I just made her into a verb) and put a whopping three in the sauce at the end.
Dump the frozen chicken breasts (You know, like the ones you get in the freezer section that are $5) into the Crockpot, add a ranch seasoning packet, and then add three cups of Frank's. Let it cook low and slow for 8 hours. Once it is done, shred it in the sauce, stir in the butter and BOOM, done. And if you want to get crazy, add a brick of cream cheese instead of the butter, and throw some cheese on top and you have a dip. Throw the chicken on a tortilla, nachos, a bun, etc. The possibilities are endless and oh, so good.
