We’re all craving some comfort food right about now. Enjoy a creamy, spicy and satisfying chicken dinner that’s filled with the flavors of buffalo wings dipped in ranch dressing. The whole family will love this homestyle baked meal that’s ready to enjoy in just 30 minutes. Skip takeout chicken wings and prepare a healthy dish that fits into your low carb diet.
To kick off this zesty chicken dinner, get started by preheating your oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray and add a quarter-cup of water to the bottom. Prepare one and half pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts by cutting them up into five-ounce portions. Slice a pocket into the side of each breast. This is where you will stuff your filling.
Set the chicken aside to prepare the creamy filling. In a small bowl, combine four ounces of room temperature cream cheese, a half-cup of shredded cheddar and one packet of ranch seasoning mix. Thoroughly mix the filling until the ingredients are well combined, then spoon the mixture evenly into each piece of chicken. Place the chicken into the prepared baking dish and brush heavily with buffalo sauce. Bake for a total of 25 minutes, brushing with additional sauce every 10 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and drizzle with ranch or blue cheese dressing before serving.
