  • Total Time: 30 min
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

1 pound chicken tenders/strips
1/4 cup buffalo-style sauce
1 tablespoon ranch seasoning
2 tablespoon buffalo-style sauce (for finishing)
1 tablespoon ranch seasoning (for finishing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Mix together 1/4 cup buffalo-style sauce and 1 tbsp ranch seasoning to create a marinade.
  3. Toss chicken in marinade and coat evenly. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least an hour or overnight.
  4. Remove from marinade (no need to drain) and place on a wire rack or baking sheet without crowding.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until cooked through.
  6. Mix remaining 2 tbsp sauce and 1 tbsp ranch seasoning. Brush over cooked tenders before serving.

Notes

  • For crispier strips, use a wire rack on your baking sheet.
  • Marinating longer (overnight) yields the most flavor.
  • Reheat leftovers in an oven or toaster oven to maintain texture.
