Suggestions

These boneless buffalo strips are a delicious and healthier alternative to traditional buffalo wings. They are baked, not fried, and served with a creamy gorgonzola dip that complements the spicy flavor of the chicken perfectly. The chicken is marinated overnight in a mixture of buttermilk, chili-garlic sauce, and Franks Red Hot sauce, which gives it a delicious kick. The strips are then coated in a whole wheat flour and panko breadcrumb mixture, sprayed with cooking spray, and baked until golden brown and crispy. The result is a juicy and tender chicken strip with a spicy kick that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner.

The gorgonzola dip is a perfect complement to the spicy chicken. It is made with sour cream, Greek yogurt, crumbled gorgonzola cheese, and a touch of garlic. The dip is smooth and creamy, with a tangy and slightly sharp flavor from the gorgonzola cheese. It is the perfect cooling contrast to the spicy chicken strips. These boneless buffalo strips are a fun and flavorful dish that is perfect for game day, a casual get-together with friends, or a quick and easy weeknight meal. They are sure to be a hit with both adults and kids alike!
