This Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Bread Bites recipe proves my opinion, the more ways you can use buffalo chicken, the better. Don’t you agree? My family and I are BIG time addicts of any flavor that involves spiciness.

These Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Bread Bites give you the flavors of well-made buffalo wings. They are the perfect appetizer. I make a lot of different buffalo chicken dip, for parties, or just for dinner, and I am always looking for new ways to use it.

If you can recall, I made these AMAZING Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Pinwheels for Christmas and then again, as requested by my son for New Year’s Eve.

Ingredients Needed

For the buffalo chicken stuffing:

• 6oz boneless, skinless chicken breast, diced
• 1 celery stalk, diced
• 1 green onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup Franks buffalo sauce
• 1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese or cheddar cheese

For the bread dough:

Please note if you have pre-made dough or leftover pizza dough, this works as a great replacement.

• 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• One packet quick rise yeast
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3/4 cup warm water

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Bread Bites

STEP ONE: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the water and yeast. Mix until dissolved. Add the flour, salt, and olive oil. Continue mixing.

STEP TWO: Use your hand to press the dough into the ball and work it into a ball. If the dough is sticky, add 1 tablespoon of flour and continue working into a ball. Set aside.

Quick timesaving tip: If you are in a hurry, canned biscuits make this stuffed bread recipe come together in no time at all. Plus, they are almost always on sale with coupons, so they are easy to stay within budget!

STEP THREE: In a skillet, saute the chicken, celery, and green onion until the chicken achieves a nice brown color and cooks through. Remove from heat. If you are short on time, you can grab a rotisserie chicken and shred it instead.

I often grab whole chickens on sale to roast, then shred and portion into freezer containers for recipes like this. I can grab a pack out of the freezer, and heat it to toss into a recipe so easily!

STEP FOUR: Next either in the skillet or a medium bowl- add the buffalo sauce and half of the cheese. Mix well.

STEP FIVE: Take the dough that you previously set aside. Take the dough ball and now work into one large log. Cut into equal pieces. You should have at least 8 pieces.

STEP SIX: Now take each piece cut and form it into a bowl shape. Like in the picture above. Then fill with chicken mixture and pinch together.

STEP SEVEN: The filling needed is roughly about a tablespoon. If you add into much, you will know. You simply won’t be able to pinch shut your dough balls.

STEP EIGHT: Place the dough balls into a greased baking sheet or casserole dish. Brush the tops with a little melted butter and extra cheese before you pop them into the oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown.
