Healthy Buffalo Chicken Bites

No batter. No oil. No frying involved.  These are the healthiest (and might tasty) buffalo chicken bites you'll come across - perfect for a summer BBQ or day out on the boat.  Find yourself a fresh pack of organic, free range, boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and a bottle of Frank's Red Hot Sauce and get cooking!




What you'll need (not much more than what was mentioned above):
  • 4 Boneless, Skinless, Chicken Breasts
  • 1 Bottle of Original Frank's Red Hot
  • 1 Package of Celery
  • 1 Jar of Marie's Lite Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing
Cut the chicken breasts into bite size pieces and place in a covered container with about 1/2 a bottle of the Frank's Red Hot (or enough to cover all the pieces).  Refrigerate and let marinate for about 2-4 hours.  Once done, preheat the oven to 400 degrees and place the chicken bites on a large pan.  Bake for about 7 minutes.  Heat a skillet on medium high and finish cooking the bites on the stovetop.  Add about a 1/4 cup more of Frank's Red Hot to the pan and stir around the chicken for 5 minutes.  Serve with celery pieces and Marie's Lite Blue Cheese.
*Marie's Lite Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing is an awesome alternative for regular blue cheese dressing.  It has about half the fat (7 g) and calories (70 kcal in 2 Tbsp), without compromising taste!
*Stick with the Original Frank's Red Hot versus the Buffalo version (there are unnecessary additives in the other versions and the original tastes just as good!).


Enjoy (in moderation) guilt-free!
