Buffalo sauce

🥗Healthier: hot sauce + vinegar

💰Cheaper: homemade hot sauce

Homemade options can be more cost-effective and allow for flavor adjustments.

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess.

shredded cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Nutritional yeast offers a cheesy flavor with fewer calories.

slider buns

🥗Healthier: whole grain buns

💰Cheaper: regular sandwich bread

Whole grain options add fiber, while regular bread is more economical.

Add all-purpose flour to a bowl.

Add cornstarch, granulated onion, granulated garlic, celery salt, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper to the bowl and mix.

In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup and a half of buttermilk and 1 egg.

Add the chicken thighs to the buttermilk mixture and toss to coat.

Refrigerate the chicken for about half an hour or overnight to marinate.

Remove the chicken from the fridge and flour the top of the thighs.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the breaded thighs until golden brown.

Once cooked, season the thighs with additional salt and pepper.

Drizzle with blue cheese and serve with shaved romaine and celery.
