Buffalo Chicken
Chicken: Cooked and shredded boneless skinless chicken breasts. Hot Sauce: I use Frank’s hot sauce or Crystal hot sauce. You want cayenne to be the main ingredient. Butter: Try and use unsalted butter so that you are not adding any additional salt to the recipe. White Vinegar: Adds a little tanginess to the sauce. Worcestershire Sauce: Gives a smokey flavor to the sauce. Cayenne Pepper: The main seasoning to making this buffalo-flavored. Garlic Powder: For added flavor.
Mac and Cheese
Elbow pasta: Use elbow macaroni noodles for classic mac and cheese. Butter: Try and use unsalted butter so that you are not adding any additional salt to the recipe. Flour: All-purpose flour will work great for this and makes the roux to thicken the sauce. Milk: Any kind of milk, 1% or 2% is perfect in this recipe. Monterey Jack Cheese: This is my favorite cheese to add. It melts perfectly and has the best flavor. Cheddar cheese: Use sharp or mild here, either is delicious. Hot Sauce: More hot sauce because why not? This ensures maximum flavor in your buffalo chicken mac and cheese! Salt: This will enhance all of the flavors in the mac and cheese. Pepper: The pepper brings in a savory flavor without any heat.
