This is a little different. I mean, the recipe is as well as posting this before I've made it for my own family. I didn't want to sit on the recipe any longer though. I won't get around to making this until May sometime, I'm sure. I thought maybe y'all could report in on your experiences with it in the mean time. It sounds super yummy, a real winner for folks who like buffalo chicken. My new friend, Sherri, shared this recipe at our weekly coffee date and I thought immediately of how much the Teenager would like it.
 
Now, some of y'all might have read the name of the recipe and thought, "Um, those flavors don't go together. Duh."  Well, I'm all about putting flavors that shouldn't otter go in the same dish and seeing what happens. What I think will happen with this is that the spaghetti will act as a carrier for the yummy flavors of the buffalo chicken, so this will be like getting buffalo chicken dip for supper. Total cheat, I know.

Sherri likes to use the slow cooker for this meal, so YAY for another slow cooker recipe. She also likes to use fettuccine instead of spaghetti noodles and she prefers Texas Pete sauce. 

Peace, B.

I've been checking the interwebs for some recipes like Sherri's buffalo chicken spaghetti. You know, I like having options. I found this recipe for baked buffalo chicken pasta from How Sweet Eats blog. It looks so yummy, I want to bake it today for lunch, but I digress.


You'll need the following ingredients to make enough buffalo chicken spaghetti for 6 folks:

1 – 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or thighs)

2 cups chicken stock

1/4 cup hot sauce* 

1 cup ranch or bleu cheese dressing

8 ounces cream cheese

16 ounces cooked spaghetti (or whatever kind of pasta you want to use)


* Sherri likes Texas Pete, but use what you like. I like an orange-y colored buffalo sauce with heat.

Throw the chicken, broth, and hot sauce in the slow cooker. Cook on low for 4 to 6 hours.

Shred chicken and reserve some of the liquid from the pot. Toss the chicken in the liquid. Add cream cheese and dressing.  

Toss the chicken mixture with the cooked pasta. 

Serve and have your family adore you for your culinary acumen.
