  1. I made this last night and it was delicious! I, too, used Frank's brand buffalo sauce (every restaurant I've ever worked at or loved the wings from uses Frank's!). I didn't have celery salt so I skipped it but I'll try it next time. I had chicken breast cutlets so I used those and they came out so flavorful and moist. Few things: I dredged the chicken in flour before I browned it to give it a slight coating, I used REAL butter (because I think margarine is a joke), I used more sauce (enough to really coat both sides of all 8 of my cutlets), and I sprinkled them with sesame seeds (just because I see a lot of places do this with their wings so it seemed like a good idea!). Thanks for a great recipe that made my new husband think I'm some sort of a good cook!
     
  2. I've made this quite a few times now and it has become of a family favorite. I dredge the chicken breasts in flour (seasoned with a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder) and brown them. I also double the sauce...I use Frank's and don't add the celery seed. So good!!!
     
  3. Very good! The sauce has just the right amount of heat from the hot sauce. People should know that this is not a thick sauce that clings but rather a thin one. Also, it does not have the exact flavor of classic/traditional/original Buffalo sauce. The sauce does have a little too much celery seed for my taste, so next time I will decrease it and I will also add some salt to it.
     
  4. This was sooooo good! I followed directions exactly. The only thing I did differently was double the sauce! We loved it, it tasted just like our local wing place Roosters. Next time I think I will do chicken breast strips/tenders. Thanks for an awesome recipe!
     
  5. This was absolutely yummy, and very easy!!! I like that I could eat "buffalo" sauce without all the fat! I made extra sauce to drizzle over the chicken when it was cooked, and I "scored" the chicken breasts so they would have more of the sauce on them. Marinated them in the sauce for about 1/2 hour first. It was a lovely warm night so I grilled them on the BBQ. Served them with creamed spinach, which went very well with them. Thank you Sherribabi - what a fun recipe!

  1. Use 1/2 the hot sauce it calls for. I used 2 boneless breast cut in half.
     
  2. This sauce was "mild" for our tastes so I used 1/4 cup each Frank's Red Hot and butter (not margarine), added 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, healthy dash of Worcestershire sauce, and about 1/2 teaspoon chipotle (or ancho) chili powder.
     
  3. I made this tonight and served it on buns as buffalo chicken sandwiches. My fiance and I both enjoyed them. I doubled the sauce and the only change I made was using fat free ranch instead of blue cheese. That just happened to be what I had in the house. We'll be putting this on our menu
     
  4. Made this for dinner last night when I was craving buffalo wings. YUM!! Very easy to make. I followed the recipe almost exactly -- I did use about a teaspoon of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter instead of the tablespoon of margarine. I used the thin cut chicken breasts, so they were ready at about 19 mins. Great way to get the wing flavor without the mess and fat! Thanks.
