Recipe: Crispy Buffalo Chicken Roll-ups

Here's another recipe from the Taste of Home magazine!  I'm not a huge fan of buffalo sauce, but I know Mike is and I sometimes try and cook with it.  I'm also not a fan of recipes that involve the messy task of dipping raw meat into various bowls to coat it.  Nonetheless, I decided to try it.  Despite the fact that I chose to buy thin sliced chicken to save on pounding chicken and they were probably much smaller than they should have been, I think the final product was pretty good.


Crispy Buffalo Chicken Roll-ups

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves (6 ounces each)
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
  • 1/4 cup hot pepper sauce
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 cup crushed cornflakes
Directions
  • Preheat oven to 400°. Flatten chicken breasts to 1/4-in. thickness. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with blue cheese. Roll up each from a short side and secure with toothpicks.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine pepper sauce and mayonnaise. Place cornflakes in a separate shallow bowl. Dip chicken in pepper sauce mixture, then coat with cornflakes. Place seam side down in a greased 11x7-in. baking dish.
  • Bake, uncovered, 30-35 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink. Discard toothpicks. Yield: 4 servings.

Something I thought of when shopping for the ingredients:  Don't you wish they sold really small boxes of corn flakes?  I only use them for 'breading' and hate that the box takes up so much room in my pantry.  And by the time I use them again they are stale.  Just a thought for anyone reading this who may work for Kellog's.

  1. You could the combo pack of mini cereal boxes...but then you'd be stuck with lots of other cereals that you might not eat.

  2. Gas stations sell small individual containers of cereal. I forgot to feed Jacob breakfast yesterday morning so we stopped on the way to school and I bought him some Fruit Loops.

  3. Sounds tasty. I also needed corn flake crumbs recently and found a 21 oz. box of "Kellogg's Corn Flakes "Crumbs" with an expiration Date May 6, 2016 at Sendick's or Pick n Save. I think they were by the breadcrumbs.
