We had some lunch at the station on Friday, and leftover in our fridge is half a litre of buffalo ranch sauce! The question is, What to do with it? I mean, sure, I could totally chug it for fun and see how quickly I can burn my taste buds off, but that seems a bit extreme, even for me. I do not want any stomach issues. So, I did some research and came up with a list of some creative and delicious ways to use up this tub buffalo ranch sauce.
First off, buffalo ranch sauce is the perfect condiment for pretty much anything fried – chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks, onion rings, you name it. Just dip and enjoy the tangy, spicy goodness. You can also mix it into some cooked pasta for a quick and easy buffalo ranch pasta dish. I’ve made a buffalo ranch chicken pasta in the past and it was phenomenal. This is plenty of sauce to get the job done!
If you’re feeling a bit more adventurous, you can use the buffalo ranch sauce as a marinade for grilled chicken, shrimp, or even some ribs as suggested by James, who called into the station! The flavors will really penetrate the protein and give it a delicious kick. Or, if you’re a fan of buffalo chicken pizza, you can swap out the traditional ranch dressing for buffalo ranch sauce for a zesty twist on a classic favorite.
And let’s not forget about salads! Buffalo ranch sauce makes a great dressing for a chicken salad or a Cobb salad. Just drizzle it over your greens and enjoy the bold flavors. You can even use it as a dipping sauce for veggies or as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.
So, there you have it – a few ideas to help you make the most of your buffalo ranch sauce. Whether you’re a fan of spicy foods or just looking to switch up your usual meals, there’s no shortage of ways to use it. I’ve learned quite a few things besides just as a dip!
