Buffalo Chicken Deviled Eggs

Buffalo Chicken Deviled Eggs

When this idea came to me I wasn't sure if I was about to embark on some genius new creation or perhaps the oddest combination ever.  The end result was incredibly delicious and just seemed to make perfect sense.  I hope you like them as much as we did.  

INGREDIENTS

6 Large Eggs

6 oz. Cooked Chicken - Chopped

1/4 Small Vidalia Onion

1/4 Cup Blue Cheese Crumbles

1/4 Cup Franks Buffalo Wing Sauce

1/2 Rib Celery

2 Tbs. Blue Cheese Dressing

(2 Tbs. Peace and Love)

DIRECTIONS

Hard boil the eggs.  This is how I make perfect hard boiled egg.  Put the eggs in a large sauce pan with cold, salted water.  Add enough water that the eggs are fully submerged.  Over high heat bring water to a rolling boil.  Once the water is boiling, remove the pan from the heat, cover and let sit for 12 minutes.  

While your eggs are boiling, chop up the chicken and the celery.

Peel the eggs and slice in half lengthwise.  Scrape the yolks out into a large mixing bowl.  To the bowl add the rest of the ingredients except for the onion.  Use a microplane to grate the onion over the bowl.  The juice from the onion will add a lot of flavor to the mixture.  

Mix all ingredients together.  Put mixture into a ziploc bag.  Squeeze the mixture to one corner of the bag and snip off the corner of the bag.  Use this to pipe the mixture into the eggs.  

***You can garnish with any leftover celery or green onions as I did***

Sour Cream Smothered Chicken

 

Sour Cream Smothered Chicken

I am always trying to think of new ways to dress up chicken.  What better way to dress it up than smothering it with all my favorite things??  This makes for great leftovers.  Enjoy!

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 lb. Boneless Skinless Chicken Breast - 4 breasts total

6 Slices Bacon - Cooked crisp and crumbled

8 oz. Mushrooms - Sliced

6 Green Onions - Chopped

1 Medium Sweet Onion - Thinly sliced

1 Cup Chicken Stock

1 Cup Sour Cream

1/3 Cup Mozzarella Cheese - Shredded 

4 Tbs. Butter - Salted

4 Tbs. Olive Oil

Garlic Salt

Pepper

(2 Tbs. Peace and Love)

DIRECTIONS

Prepare all your veggies.  Thinly slice the onions.  Slice the mushrooms.  Chop the green onions.

Chop up bacon and cook until it is nice and crispy.  Drain excess grease and set aside.

In a large saute pan, combine onions, mushrooms, 2 Tbs. butter, 2 Tbs. olive oil, and garlic salt and pepper - to taste.  Saute over medium heat until the mushrooms and onions are nice and caramelized.  About 25-30 minutes.

Once your onions and mushrooms are caramelized, add the chicken stock, and sour cream.  Allow to come to a boil over medium high, reduce heat to low and allow the sauce to simmer and thicken. About 15-20 minutes. Stir often.  While the sauce is reducing and thickening, taste periodically and add garlic salt and pepper until you have reached your desired level of saltiness.

At the same time, in a large skillet,  pan-sear the chicken breasts in 2 Tbs. butter and 2 Tbs. olive oil over medium heat.  Cook until the chicken is cooked all the way through and is a nice golden brown on both sides.

Once the chicken is cooked all the way through, plate it, top with sauce, cheese, bacon and green onions.
