Ingredients

Scale

Fries Base

  • 4 cups frozen French fries

Buffalo Chicken

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce

Cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Garnishes & Extras

  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • Ranch or blue cheese dressing, for drizzling or dipping
  • Celery sticks, sliced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fries: Bake or fry your frozen French fries according to the package instructions until they are golden and crispy, ensuring a crunchy foundation for the dish.
  2. Shred and Toss the Chicken: While the fries cook, shred the cooked chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and toss them in buffalo sauce until thoroughly coated for that signature spicy and tangy flavor.
  3. Layer the Fries and Chicken: Spread the crispy fries evenly on a baking sheet or oven-safe dish, then distribute the buffalo chicken evenly over the fries to ensure each bite has some spicy goodness.
  4. Add the Cheese: Sprinkle a generous mixture of shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the fries and chicken to create a rich, gooey topping.
  5. Bake Until Melty: Place the assembled dish in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and irresistibly gooey.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped green onions. Optionally drizzle ranch or blue cheese dressing on top and add celery slices for a fresh crunch.

Notes

  • Use freshly shredded chicken for better sauce absorption and tenderness.
  • Maintain a good topping-to-fries ratio to keep fries crispy and avoid sogginess.
  • Combine cheddar and mozzarella cheeses for ideal melt and flavor depth.
  • Warm buffalo sauce slightly before tossing chicken for even coating.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the fries while the cheese is hot and melty.
