This low carb buffalo chicken casserole is a delicious take on a popular buffalo chicken dip appetizer.
Something magical happens when you combine buffalo sauce and chicken. It’s is just one of those amazing combinations people can’t get enough of. A simple Google search for buffalo chicken dip will reveal hundreds, if not thousands or recipes. In fact, there are around 300,000 or more searches on Google every month for that very term.
So I decided to take the popular recipe and make it into a casserole. You can still enjoy it as a low carb buffalo chicken dip, or serve it as the main dish for dinner.
It’s a fairly easy dish, essentially combine all of the ingredients together and bake.
This recipe is based on already having shredded chicken on hand. The video below shows an easy way to make shredded chicken, or you can buy a rotisserie chicken and use the meat from that.
