BUFFALO CHICKEN CUPS
A fun way to serve buffalo chicken in bite-sized cups! I made these after thinking about what a hit buffalo chicken is with my guests, but wanting to keep it a little less messy to eat during the big games. They were a hit, so I thought I'd share :) This is especially fast and easy if you already have some cooked chicken on hand to shred and use. Note - if you like bleu cheese with your buffalo chicken, feel free to sub in bleu cheese dressing instead of ranch, or bleu cheese instead of the cheddar. We're just not bleu cheese fans around here ;)

Steps:
- Place chicken breasts, 2 teaspoons of salt, peppercorns, onion quarters, garlic cloves, bay leaves, and water in a large pot.
- Cover the pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Once the water is simmering, cook for 10 minutes, until the chicken registers 165°F (74°C) when pierced with an instant-read thermometer.
- Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and reserve at least ½ cup (120 ml) of the cooking liquid to use as chicken broth . Using 2 forks, pull the chicken apart until shredded.
- In a large nonstick pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add the diced onion, diced celery, and a pinch of salt. Sauté until the vegetables have softened, about 2 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Add the hot sauce and chicken broth. Stir until the liquid has reduced slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Add the shredded chicken and mix until everything is well incorporated.
- Remove the pan from the heat and let the chicken cool for 5 minutes before spooning into the lettuce leaves.
- Top with shredded carrots, sliced celery, and bleu cheese dressing.
- Enjoy!
