Servings: 6
Ingredients:
- ⚫ Crock pot
- ⚫ 2lbs chicken breast
- ⚫ 3/4 cup chicken broth (divided)
- ⚫ 6 medium sweet potatoes
- ⚫ 1 cup buffalo sauce (I use Primal Kitchen)
- ⚫ Toppings:
-
- ⚫ Shredded mozzarella (omit for dairy free)
- ⚫ Shredded carrots
- ⚫ Scallions
-
Directions:
1️⃣ Cook the chicken: Place the chicken breasts and ½ cup of chicken broth in your crock pot. Cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until fully cooked and tender.
2️⃣ Bake the sweet potatoes: Preheat your oven to 375°F. During the last hour of chicken cooking time, pierce each sweet potato all over with a fork and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 45–60 minutes, or until soft and fork-tender.
3️⃣ Make the Buffalo Chicken: Once the chicken is done, discard the excess cooking liquid, then shred the chicken with two forks. Stir in 1 cup of buffalo sauce and ¼ cup of broth, mixing until well coated. Let it warm through in the crock pot for 5–10 more minutes.
4️⃣ Assemble & serve: Slice each sweet potato in half lengthwise. Fill with a generous scoop of buffalo chicken, then top with shredded mozzarella (omit for dairy-free), carrots, and scallions to taste.
