Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Chili
It doesn't look like much, but it's good. I adapted the recipe from something I saw on either (a) a major food manufacturer website or (b) a frugal mommy blog. I don't remember, so now I'm claiming it. It got a lot of positive feedback from my neighbor's Super Bowl party.
Almost-Famous Buffalo Chicken Chili
Most of a rotisserie chicken (like, cut off a breast to eat for dinner one night, then pick it clean and dice it up)
1 large onion, chopped
2 medium celery stalks, chopped
2 medium carrots (or about 15 baby carrots), chopped
1 (28 oz.) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 c. chicken broth
2 t chili powder
1/2 t salt
1/4 c. buffalo wing sauce
Spray 5- to 6-quart slow cooker. Mix all ingredients except wing sauce. Cook on LOW for 8 to 10 hours. Stir in sauce.
I made it with 2 T of chili powder last time and, umm, had some bite to it. Still really good, though. I use "Most of a Rotisserie Chicken" because I have it on hand. I hate raw chicken passionately. If you, however, don't buy rotisserie chickens, the original recipes calls for "2 1/2 lbs. boneless chicken thighs, cooked, cut into pieces."
