Stuffed Buffalo Chicken
Back when I went to Blissdom I received the Take this Dish and Twist It by George Duran
So last week I made these and froze them, altering the recipe and instructions a bit. I unfroze them this week and baked them. YUM!
If your family isn’t a fan of bleu cheese, consider filling the chicken with Mozzarella instead, it will taste just as yummy. These could also be grilled if you prefer. Whatever makes your mouth happiest!

Ingredients:
- 2 pounds boneless chicken breast
- 4 ounces bleu cheese crumbles
- 1 cup butter
- 4 Tablespoons white vinegar
- 4 Tablespoons buffalo wing sauce
- To Taste salt
- To Taste pepper
- Toothpicks
Directions:
If you are using fresh chicken breasts (bought in the grocery store meat case) you will likely need to cut them in half. You do not need to cut in half chicken that was thawed from the frozen chicken bags. Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket into each (half) chicken breast. Stuff bleu cheese into each breast. Secure the openings with toothpicks and season the chicken with salt and pepper.
Place chicken breasts in an 8×8 baking dish. In a small pan combine the butter, vinegar, and hot sauce. Cook over medium heat until bubbling. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Bake for 1 hour, or until chicken reaches at least 165 degrees, at 350 degrees. Melt additional bleu cheese over the top if desired and serve with celery.
Freezing Directions:
Do not bake. Follow directions up to baking, seal and place in freezer. To serve: Thaw. Place chicken breasts in an 8×8 baking dish. In a small pan combine the butter, vinegar, and hot sauce. Cook over medium heat until bubbling. Pour the sauce over the chicken. Bake for 1 hour, or until chicken reaches at least 165 degrees, at 350 degrees. Melt additional bleu cheese over the top if desired and serve with celery.
Variation: If your family isn’t a fan of bleu cheese, substitute Mozzarella, they will be just as tasty.
Servings: 4

I really shouldn’t be reading this before lunch. Those look soooo good.
OMG! I love anything with wing sauce. Will have to make this as soon as I can eat solids.
This looks so good. I love it with the blue cheese and the hot buffalo sauce. Joni
Oh my goodness, that looks * G O O D !! **
Oh, my! This sounds absolutely delish!
Thanks for sharing!
YUMMY! I love buffalo chicken, as does my husband. I’d probably have to mozz them because he doesn’t like bleu…bummer. But whatever, either way they sound killer!
Thanks so much for sharing @ FF!
These look amazing and delicious. Thanks for a fun idea.
could u freeze these with the sauce instead of cooking on eating day?
Actually, I don’t see why not.
WOW, I can not wait to try these. My family loves buffalo chicken anything! Thanks :)
I am doubling this recipe for dinner tonight (freezing the other half!)…:)
It was yummy!!!
Yay! Glad I am not the only one that thought so.
Ok I’m having issues picturing how to cut a pocket into the thawed frozen chicken breasts…
There are pictures at the bottom. If you click on them there some instructions.
Can I thaw my frozen chicken breasts I buy in bulk, make these, then re-freeze them?
According to the FDA, as long as you thaw them in the refrigerator slowly (and properly) they can be refrozen without harmful side effects.

Very yummy! Thanks! I love the method even more than this recipe itself… I can totally see doing feta and sun dried tomato stuffed chicken breast marinated in greek dressing- that’s one of our family’s favorites!

What type of sides would you serve this with?
I serve a salad, flavored rice, flavored pasta or green vegetables.
Did you use Buffalo Wing Sauce or just regular hot sauce? I wasn’t sure if I should do the whole butter and vinegar thing to prepared bottled wing sauce.
I used buffalo wing sauce in mine. . .I’m not sure what Pam used. I will ask her.
Did you add the butter and vinegar to the wing sauce, or that only if you use just hot sauce?
yes add the butter and vinegar to the hot sauce
