Buffalo Chicken Bombs
Man, I just can’t keep my hands off of Buffalo chicken. I keep coming up with more and more ways to serve it: as a sandwich, a wrap, a burger, a sloppy joe, a pasta, and even a salad. All these versions have the spicy kick of Buffalo wings, without all the litter of bones and greasy napkins.
For my latest twist on this great chicken dish, I’ve created Buffalo Chicken Bombs. I started with spicy shredded chicken, blended it with cheese, and then wrapped the mixture up completely in biscuit dough and baked it. This makes a neat little package that looks like an innocent, golden-brown dinner roll – but with a big payload of spicy, cheesy chicken sealed inside, just waiting to explode into your mouth.
These little babies are good for just about any occasion. They make a great party appetizer that’s easy to eat with one hand, but you can also toss them into a brown-bag lunch, enjoy one as an after-school snack, or even serve up a batch for a fun family dinner. Pretty much any time you have leftover roast chicken is the perfect time to make them.
