Buffalo Baked Chicken with Gorgonzola Cream Sauce

Buffalo Baked Chicken with Gorgonzola Cream Sauce

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 30 min

Serves: 4

Ingredients

Cooking oil spray

1 large bag (about 4 ounces) regular pork rinds

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1 ½ pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut or pounded into thin cutlets

2 eggs, beaten in a bowl

1/4 cup Louisiana hot sauce

1/4 cup melted whole butter

GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE

2/3 cup gorgonzola or any bleu cheese

1/4 cup mayonnaise

Dash of Worcestershire sauce

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a sheet pan heavily with cooking oil.

2. Add the pork rinds, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder to a large food storage bag, seal and use a rolling pin or heavy can to crush the rinds until smooth.

3. One at a time dip each chicken cutlet first into the beaten egg and then into the bag of seasoned pork rinds, shaking to coat. 

4. Place the coated chicken breast cutlets in a single layer on the well greased sheet pan and bake for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is thoroughly cooked; turning each piece over half way through cooking to ensure even browning. 

5. Meantime in a medium bowl, combine the hot sauce and melted butter and set aside.

6. A few minutes before the chicken is done cooking, add all the Gorgonzola Cream Sauce ingredients to a small pan over medium heat. Stir constantly for 4 to 5 minutes, just until the gorgonzola cheese melts and all ingredients are combined.

7. When chicken is finished cooking, remove from oven and quickly toss each piece in the bowl of hot sauce and butter to coat well before serving draped with the warm Gorgonzola Cream Sauce. Serve with celery sticks, if desired!

HELPFUL HINTS

Always use full-fat mayo, and especially cheeses, as low-fat cheeses don’t melt properly and they most always will have added sugars and even starches!

Don’t let the cooked chicken sit in the hot sauce and butter or it will become soggy and too hot!

And if the chicken is not crispy on top, you can always place the sheet pan in the center of the oven and let it sit under the broiler for just a few seconds to crisp.
