Buffalo Chicken French Bread Recipes

BUFFALO CHICKEN-STUFFED FRENCH BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Slice about 2 inches deep through the top of the bread and continue to cut a large rectangle, being careful not to cut through the bottom of the bread. Remove top of bread and hollow out middle to create a rectangular bread bowl. Set aside.
• Whisk together cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, hot sauce, ranch seasoning, salt, chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder in a bowl until well combined. Stir in blue cheese, 3/4 cup Cheddar and 3/4 cup mozzarella, followed by chicken.
• Spoon Buffalo chicken dip into prepared French bread and top with remaining Cheddar and mozzarella cheeses. Bake on a baking tray for 35 to 45 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden brown. Let bread sit approximately 10 minutes to set and slightly cool, then slice. Best served warm. Garnish with blue cheese if desired.

BUFFALO CHICKEN STUFFED FRENCH BREAD

Steps:

• Cook the chicken breasts (I like to boil them) and then shred with two forks.
• Mix cheese, ranch dressing, and chili sauce with the chicken.
• Slice the french bread loaf lengthwise. Do not separate the two halves -- just butterfly it. Scoop out the soft bread filling, and break into little bits with your fingers.
• Add the bread pieces in with the chicken mix, and stir well to get everything coated nicely.
• Spoon all the chicken filling back into the french bread shells. Close the loaf together, and wrap tightly in foil.
• Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes to melt the cheese.
• When cool enough to handle, slice into rounds about 1 or 2 inches thick.
