Buffalo Chicken Sub Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil. Sprinkle both sides of the chicken with some salt and pepper, the brown sugar, paprika and cayenne. Sear both sides of the chicken in the skillet until golden, about 4 minutes. Add in the wing sauce, bring to a simmer and finish off in the oven until the chicken registers 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 15 minutes. Let cool, and then pull the meat with your hands or two forks. Adjust the seasoning if necessary, add the butter if using, and place back in the oven at BROIL until crusty and caramelized on top, about 4 minutes.
• In a bowl, the combine carrots, celery and tomatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Mix until combined.
• Cut the French loaf horizontally. Place an even layer of blue cheese crumbles on the bottom, then the chicken and then the veggies. Serve with a side of Homemade Ranch Dressing.
• Mix the mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic, dill, honey, salt, mustard and pepper in a bowl. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and sprinkle all over with the chili powder and some salt and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of the butter. Lay the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and cook without moving it until the skin is golden and crispy, about 4 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook until opaque, about 4 minutes more. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish or roasting pan (reserve the skillet), and bake until firm to the touch, about 10 minutes; let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• While the chicken bakes, thinly slice the celery. Trim and discard the tough stems from the watercress. Rinse, dry and set aside the leaves.
• Cut the baguette crosswise into 4 equal pieces; cut each piece in half horizontally for sub-style sandwiches. Add 2 tablespoons butter to the reserved skillet over medium-high heat. Once the butter stops foaming, toast half the bread pieces cut-side down, pressing and moving them to soak up all the butter, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and brush with half the hot sauce. Repeat with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, bread and hot sauce.
• Spread the blue cheese evenly on the bread bottoms. Layer the celery over the cheese. Thinly slice the chicken and place it on the celery. Top with the watercress and finish by smearing the top pieces of bread with the mayonnaise. Press the tops on the sandwiches and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Spread cream cheese into an ungreased shallow 1-qt. baking dish. Layer with chicken, wing sauce and salad dressing. Sprinkle with cheese., Bake, uncovered, until cheese is melted, 20-25 minutes. Serve with baguette slices.

Steps:

• In a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker, combine first 6 ingredients. Cook, covered, on low until chicken is tender, 3-4 hours. Remove from slow cooker. Cool slightly; shred meat with 2 forks and return to slow cooker. Using tongs, serve on hoagie buns. If desired, top with dressing and serve with celery ribs.

Steps:

• Brush each chicken breast with wing sauce then season with salt and pepper.
• Grill each chicken breast, basting with wing sauce until fully cooked.
• Drizzle each hamburger bun with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and place on grill until golden brown.
• Build each sandwich from bottom bun to top with lettuce, tomato, chicken breast and 1 tablespoon of blue cheese dressing.

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a shallow bowl. Cover with the buttermilk, turning to coat. Combine the ranch dressing and blue cheese in a small bowl and refrigerate. On a large plate, stir together the flour and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Pour the Buffalo sauce into a shallow bowl. Line a large plate with a few layers of paper towels.
• Add enough vegetable oil to a large skillet to come halfway up the sides. Heat over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350˚ F. Working in batches, remove the chicken from the buttermilk, letting the excess drip off, then coat in the flour mixture and shake off any excess. Carefully add the chicken to the hot oil and fry until dark golden brown and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the chicken to the paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• As soon as the chicken is cool enough to handle, dip in the Buffalo sauce, coating it entirely. Place each chicken cutlet on a bun bottom and top with coleslaw and cucumber. Spread the bun tops with the blue cheese mixture and close the sandwiches. Serve with potato chips.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler. Season the chicken with salt and black pepper; sprinkle with the brown sugar, paprika and cayenne. Warm the vegetable oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Cook half of the chicken in the skillet until golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side; transfer to a plate. Cook the rest, then return all the chicken to the skillet. Add the wing sauce and bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until the chicken registers 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 10 minutes. Let cool, then shred and return to the skillet. Add more wing sauce if desired, then broil until crisp and caramelized, about 4 minutes.
• Combine the carrots, celery and tomatoes in a bowl and season with salt and black pepper.
• Make the ranch dressing: Combine the mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic, dill, honey, mustard, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of black pepper in a bowl.
• Split open the bread lengthwise. Put the blue cheese crumbles on the bottom, then add the chicken and veggies. Cut into small sandwiches and serve with the ranch dressing on the side.
