Grilled Cheesy Buffalo Chicken
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 3
Ingredients
- 1 lbs boneless chicken breast
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup Frank’s Hot Sauce
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 clove garlic
- 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 tsp celery salt
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice about a 3-inch deep cut on the side of the chicken. Avoid cutting the chicken in half with the sharp knife.
- Stir the hot sauce, lemon juice, and melted butter in a bowl. Include the celery salt and minced garlic into the mixture. Add a dash of pepper and salt to flavor. With a brush or your hand, season the whole chicken with the mixed sauce. Cover the entire interior and exterior of the meat. Reserve any remaining sauce for later.
- Stuff the shredded mozzarella inside the chicken cuts. Wrap the ends of the chicken over the cut and tuck them inside securely. Push a toothpick through the meat to keep it together.
- Heat the olive oil in a grill pan set over medium-high heat. Grill the chicken on every side for 5 minutes a side. Ensure that the chicken is cooked through and has no pink spots. For every flip of the chicken, brush the cooked sides with the remaining sauce for a more flavorful product.
- Remove from the heat once cooked. Take out the toothpick. Serve in slices and enjoy while hot.
