Indulge in the delightful flavors of this tantalizing Buffalo Chicken Salad, adorned with a dollop of Homemade Greek Yogurt Ranch. If you’re a salad enthusiast like me, this recipe is a definite must-try!

Ingredients Needed:

3 cups of cooked chicken breast

2 stalks of green onions

1 small celery stalk

½ cup of mayonnaise

¼ cup of hot sauce

How To Make:

Step 1: Chop the Greens

Begin by finely chopping the green onions and celery stalk using a food processor. Pulse until they reach a finely chopped consistency.

Step 2: Shred the Chicken

Add the cooked chicken breast pieces into the food processor and pulse until the chicken is shredded to your preference. If you prefer larger chicken pieces, skip this step.

Step 3: Mix and Adjust

Transfer the shredded chicken mixture into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add in the mayonnaise and hot sauce. Mix thoroughly and taste. Adjust the flavors according to your preference by adding more hot sauce for extra heat or more mayonnaise for added creaminess.

Step 4: Chill and Serve

Once mixed, refrigerate the salad until you’re ready to enjoy it. Serve alongside fresh veggies like celery sticks or sweet bell peppers. Alternatively, enjoy it on its own or wrapped in lettuce leaves. I personally love to scoop it onto a piece of romaine lettuce for a deliciously satisfying bite.
