Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken with Greek Yogurt


  • Total Time: 4 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

Tender slow-cooked chicken breasts tossed in spicy buffalo sauce, served creamy with Greek yogurt for a healthier twist on a classic favorite.


Ingredients

Scale

1.5 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 cup buffalo wing sauce
1/2 cup low-fat plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt


Instructions

Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the slow cooker.
In a small bowl, combine the buffalo wing sauce, chicken broth, unsalted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir until the butter is melted and the mixture is well blended.
Pour the buffalo sauce mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 4 hours, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
Remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker and shred them using two forks.
Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker and stir to coat with the sauce.
Transfer the shredded buffalo chicken to a serving bowl and gently fold in the Greek yogurt until well combined.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides or use as a filling for sandwiches or wraps.
