Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Shells
Stuff pasta shells with shredded chicken, cream cheese and buffalo sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 box Jumbo Pasta Shells
- 3½ cups shredded chicken from 2-3 chicken breasts
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese softened
- ½ cup Buffalo Sauce plus more to drizzle on top
- ? cup Ranch Dressing
- 1 cup Grated Mozzarella
- 1 large Green Onion finely sliced
- ¼ cup Bacon Bits (optional topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F with an oven rack in the middle position.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add in a tablespoon of salt. Cook the jumbo pasta shells as per directed on the package. Drain the cooked shells and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, the buffalo sauce and the ranch dressing. (This works best if you microwave the cream cheese for 45 seconds to soften it.)
- Use a spoon to fill 24 cooked jumbo shells with the buffalo chicken mixture. Place them in a greased baking dish.
- Sprinkle the grated cheese over the filled shells. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden on top.
- Take the baked shells out of the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Drizzle the shells with buffalo sauce and sprinkle them with the chopped green onion.
