Ooooh, do I have a treat for you!!! Have you ever gone to "Hooters" and tried their famous buffalo chicken sandwiches?? If not....you should! And if you're not feeling the females with tight shorts and tank tops scene while they're serving you then by all means; serve yourself at home!
So my first time trying this delicious, scrumptious, sammich was about a couple of years ago when a girlfriend and I went out to dinner at "Hooters." Why'd we choose Hooters? Um, not sure to be honest, but we took a night out from the hubbies and did our own thing. lol Well, I ordered the buffalo chicken sandwich and fell in love! I loved it so much that I tried it at home and everyone loved it too. So, now I'm sharing my adaption of the Hooter's buffalo chicken sandwich recipe.
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich
1-pack of boneless chicken tenderloins (may need more depending on family size)
Canola/Olive Oil
Frying Pan
Cookie Sheet Pan
1-Large Zip loc bag
Paper Towels
Medium Bowl
Flour
Garlic Powder
Black Pepper
Season Salt
Buffalo Sauce
Ranch Dressing
Mayo
Provolone Cheese
Sliced Dill Pickles
Potato Rolls
Directions:
Pre-heat oven on 250 degrees. Pour oil (about 1/2 to 1 inch from bottom) into frying pan and turn onto medium fire. While oil is heating up, wash chicken tenderloins and place on layered paper towels to help drain out excess water. Pour a a tablespoon of each seasoning (season salt, garlic powder and black pepper) and 2 cups of flour into large zip lock bag. Put chicken tenderloins in bag and shake. Once covered, place each strip into frying pan. Let chicken strips cook on each side until golden brown and fully cooked on the inside. Once chicken strips are finished, place on a new set of layered paper towels to drain excess oil. In a medium-sized bowl, pour in 1-1 1/2 cups of buffalo sauce. Place chicken strips in bowl of sauce and turn over on all sides to cover each strip fully. Place strips onto cookie sheet and then put it into the oven for about 5 minutes.
While strips are baking, lightly toast buns in frying pan or toaster. Place toasted buns to the side when complete. Then take strips out of the oven. While strips are cooling, take each bun and lightly spread mayonnaise and ranch dressing. Place 2-3 small strips on bottom bun. Place provolone cheese on top (or if you don't like cheese, none at all will work too!) and put 1-2 dill pickles on top. Put your top bun on...and now you can serve!
This is a quick, easy, and fun meal for the family. Especially on a Friday/Saturday at-home "movie" night. Fries would be a good side or if you want to go the healthier route, salad is always good too! If you try this recipe, let me know how it turns out for you! I hope you enjoy!
Take care and have a great weekend!
