This is another Rachael Ray recipe. A great way to get the taste of buffalo chicken without the grease and fat, and a little healthy even!

very good. I did bread the chicken which made it really yummy. I used a homemade ranch dressing. Only used 1/2 the hot sauce - next time will use more.

    Very tasty. I breaded my chicken bits before frying them to get that crunch.

    I loved this salad! I used buffalo wing sauce I had on hand in place of hot sauce and cut butter and oil in half to cut calories. My family doesn't like blue cheese so I made theirs without and added crumbled blue to mine. I loved how the cheese melted into the salad and became part of the dressing. Yum. Will definately make this again.

    This is a winner, Kelbel! This recipe was so easy and fast, the taste really was "kapow! I had chicken tenderloins, and cooked them as ~Nimz~ had suggested, reducing the oil, in fact; I used a non stick skillet and sprayed the chicken with a hint of cooking spray. Added coarse ground pepper and course ground sea salt that adhered to the tenderloins beautifully. Browned on one side in about 4 minutes (over medium heat) turned over, sprayed a bit and continued for another 2 minutes. I added the celery, low fat blue cheese dressing and a couple of chopped walnuts. I used a medium hot sauce for Dennis, (the Jalapeno Tabasco) and I used XXX Hot Habanero Sauce for mine. Thank you for posting such a delightful, quick and easy recipe, that can be heat adjusted.
