If you love buffalo wings, you are going to adore this chili. It combines tender shredded chicken with classic buffalo sauce and just enough spice to warm you up on a chilly evening. It is the perfect comfort food for game day or a busy weeknight dinner.

My best tip is to use a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store to save a lot of time. If you prefer things a little milder, just start with less buffalo sauce and taste as you go before adding the rest.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can white kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 cup cream cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the diced onion and minced garlic in a large pot with a splash of oil and cook over medium heat until soft.

  2. 2

    Add the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, chicken broth, beans, corn, chili powder, and cumin to the pot.

  3. 3

    Stir everything well and let the mixture simmer on low heat for about 20 minutes to let the flavors blend together.

  4. 4

    Stir in the cream cheese until it is fully melted and the chili looks nice and creamy.

  5. 5

    Serve hot in bowls with your favorite toppings like crumbled blue cheese or fresh cilantro.

💡 Tips

Serve this chili topped with a handful of shredded cheddar cheese, sliced green onions, or a dollop of sour cream. You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
