Preparation
- In a medium bowl, combine the chicken thighs and ½ cup (120 ml) Frank’s RedHot® Buffalo sauce. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.
- Make the buttermilk blue cheese dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the yogurt, mayonnaise, lemon juice, buttermilk, and chives. Whisk to incorporate before folding in the bleu cheese and seasoning with salt and pepper. Cover and chill until ready to use. The dressing will keep in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the oven and let sit until cool enough to handle.
- Cut chicken into cubes and toss with the remaining 3 tablespoons of Frank’s RedHot® Buffalo Sauce.
- Assemble the salads: Add ½ cup (55 G) of the bleu cheese dressing to the lettuce and toss to coat. Divide the lettuce in between 4 bowls. Top with the chicken, celery, carrots, and tomatoes. Drizzle the remaining bleu cheese dressing on top. Garnish with the crumbled bleu cheese, chives, and dill. Serve immediately.
