If you love buffalo chicken, I guarantee you will love this one, too.  In fact, in my opinion, this is more flavorful than any typical buffalo chicken recipes.  Traditional buffalo chicken is all about the heat.  It numbs your taste buds.  This spicy chicken recipe has the ranch mix to bring out the flavor of buffalo chicken flavor.  I dare you to try it.

CHEF NOTES

Some people may not be able to take up this much of spiciness.  If that's the case, use 2 parts of ranch mix and 1 part of buffalo chicken mix.  

I tried out buffalo ranch mix out of the jar, which has everything mixed it up already.  It didn't come out as nice as I expect.  So, mix it yourself allows you to control how spicy or mild you want.

Normally, most of my chicken recipes can be applied to bone-in skin-on chicken thighs, quarters and breasts.  For this specific one, I tried it on the breasts once.  It is not enough to get the flavors all the way through, especially if it is split chicken breasts.  However, if you love spicy food, but cannot stomach it, using chicken breasts will work out better for you.
