Shredded Buffalo Chicken


  • Author: Nate Dadosky

  • Yield: serves 4

Description

A “set it and forget it” recipe for spicy, super tender buffalo shredded chicken!


Ingredients

Scale
  • ⅓ cup hot sauce (I like Texas Pete)
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Add hot sauce, butter and chicken thighs to a large, nonstick pot. Cover tightly and cook over low heat for 1-1.5 hours or until tender enough to shred.
  2. Once cooked, turn heat to medium and shred chicken with silicone tongs while the accumulated liquid reduces (about 15 minutes). Alternatively, transfer the chicken to a plate and shred with forks while the liquid reduces.
  3. Once the liquid is almost entirely evaporated, remove from heat and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve in lettuce boats, over salad, in dips or with low-carb bell pepper nachos!
