This is a wonderful, quick meal. My teenage son insists I make it at least every other week! I made a mix of the spices needed so I can just sprinkle it over the chicken, then pan fry the chicken, and pour the buffalo sauce over the chicken in the pan to let it soak for a while. I serve it with coleslaw on the sandwich, and seasoned fries on the side.

Quite a good recipe! Wasn't sure if the sauce was supposed to use cream cheese or sour cream so I used the sour cream. I added some garlic and onion powders to the spice mix. Yummy!
