Buffalo Chicken Nachos
I had a craving for Buffalo Wing something so I started looking around for inspiration. I saw this and then this and decided to give it a try. I made Buffalo Chicken Nachos for Two. Of course, you can upsize for a crowd with the Super Bowl this coming weekend.
In my college days we would go to TGIFriday’s and eat chicken wings along with other not super healthy food. I don’t have chicken wings very often these days but had a surplus of shredded chicken. It seemed like a good idea. It is a nice snack or light meal.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Looking at these pictures I think it’s time I get a new pan!
Then add the hot sauce. I used Frank’s Red Hot Wings Sauce.
Mix together to create the sauce.
Layer the chips. One of the recipes used Ranch tortilla chips but I used the regular chips I had in my pantry.
Place in the oven for a few minutes and dig in. Serve Ranch on the side. They really do capture the flavors of hot wings onto nachos.
