Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 pound lean ground chicken or turkey
½ of a yellow onion (diced)
2 carrots (diced)
2 stalk of celery (diced)
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ cup low sodium chicken broth or water
8 ounce can tomato sauce
¼ cup buffalo wing sauce (I use Frank's Buffalo Wing Sauce)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
Hamburger buns for serving
1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
3 tablespoons low-fat buttermilk
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
½ teaspoon dried parsley (crushed between the palms of your hands)
¼ teaspoon dried dill
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Over medium high heat, spray a large skillet generously with cooking spray or add a tablespoon of oil.
  • When the skillet is hot, sauté the onion, carrots and celery until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Add in the minced garlic and sauté another minute.
  • Add in the ground chicken and break it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon.
  • Season with a teaspoon of kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
  • Cook the chicken and vegetables until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink.
  • Add in the chicken broth or water and scrape up any bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  • In a small bowl or measuring glass whisk together the tomato sauce, wing sauce, Worcestershire and apple cider vinegar.
  • Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir together until everything is coated.
  • Turn the heat down to low and simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Serve on hamburger buns topped with the blue cheese ranch sauce.
  • In a small bowl add in the Greek yogurt and crumbled blue cheese.
  • Use the back of a fork to mash the blue cheese into the yogurt.
  • Whisk in the buttermilk and remaining ingredients.
  • Serve immediately on top of the sloppy Joes or cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

BUFFALO CHICKEN SLOPPY JOES



Buffalo Chicken Sloppy Joes image

Guaranteed to be an instant comfort food favorite. Inspired by a Rachel Ray recipe, I have modified it by adding a creamy and cheesy kick to it. You'll be dreaming about this dish. Feel free to play with the recipe. I put in the cream cheese and Cheddar to make it creamier. I am a huge fan of Buffalo Chicken Dip and wanted this dish to be similar.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 pounds ground chicken
1 onion, chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¾ cup chicken stock
¼ cup hot buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank's® REDHOT Buffalo Wing Sauce), or to taste
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar

6 ounces Neufchatel cheese, softened
8 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese, or more to taste
8 hamburger buns, split

  • Combine chicken stock, Buffalo wing sauce, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl.
