Buffalo Chicken Wings Jar

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Buffalo Chicken Wings Jar.

1. Step 1

   Start by heating a dry saucepan over high heat.

2. Step 2

   Once the pan is hot, carefully place the chicken thighs in it, skin-side down.

3. Step 3

   Let them cook for about five minutes, or until the skin is beautifully browned and crispy.

4. Step 4

   Don’t forget to season the chicken generously with salt to enhance the flavor.

5. Step 5

   When the skin releases easily from the pan, it’s time to flip the thighs over.

6. Step 6

   Add a delightful mix of butter, hot sauce, and water to the pan, tossing the chicken to ensure it’s well-coated in the sauce as the butter melts into a luscious blend.

7. Step 7

   Now, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and let it simmer gently for about an hour and a half.

8. Step 8

   This slow cooking will make the meat tender and easy to pull away from the bone.

9. Step 9

   Once done, remove the pan from the heat.

10. Step 10

    Using tongs, shred the chicken into smaller pieces, mixing it with the sauce for maximum flavor.

11. Step 11

    Allow this mixture to cool to room temperature for at least 20 minutes.

12. Step 12

    Next, transfer the shredded chicken to a mixing bowl, making sure to discard any bones, cartilage, or skin.

13. Step 13

    Bring the sauce in the pan to a boil over medium-high heat, letting it reduce for about two minutes until it thickens slightly.

14. Step 14

    Pour this rich sauce over the chicken and mix thoroughly.

15. Step 15

    Taste your creation and adjust the seasoning with salt, cayenne, and extra hot sauce if you like it spicy.

16. Step 16

    Stir in some chopped celery for a refreshing crunch.

17. Step 17

    Now, pack this delicious chicken mixture into a pint-sized jar or crock.

18. Step 18

    If you’re feeling adventurous, top it with a spoonful of hot sauce before sealing the jar.

19. Step 19

    Refrigerate until you’re ready to serve, but remember to take it out 30 minutes beforehand to let it warm up a bit.

20. Step 20

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the baguette slices.

21. Step 21

    Arrange them on a baking sheet and brush the tops generously with butter.

22. Step 22

    Bake until the edges are golden brown, which should take about 20 minutes.

23. Step 23

    In a small bowl, mix together butter and blue cheese until smooth and creamy.

24. Step 24

    Once the baguette slices are toasted, let them cool slightly while keeping the oven on.

25. Step 25

    Spread the blue cheese mixture generously on each slice, then pop them back in the oven for another 10 to 12 minutes, or until they’re golden brown and crispy.

26. Step 26

    Serve these delightful blue cheese-topped baguette slices alongside your flavorful buffalo chicken spread for a truly irresistible treat.
