Creamy, cheesy, spicy, filling – this Buffalo Chicken Chili is the perfect cozy, one-pot fall and winter meal! It's so easy to make in about 45 minutes, and it's always a hit. You can adjust the spice level to your preference to make it kid friendly.
This is probably controversial, but if I'm being honest, I'll always choose a chicken chili over beef. Especially when it's this buffalo chicken chili! It has a creamy, rich, absolutely delicious broth, tons of protein from shredded chicken, white beans, and just the right amount of spice.
This chili is always a huge hit amongst our family and friends, and pretty much everyone goes back for seconds. (So if you want leftovers, you might want to make a double batch!)
Even better, it's made in one pot and it's ready in about 45 minutes. It's easy enough for a weeknight, but it's also a great recipe to make on a lazy Sunday. It's also always a hit for game day or tailgating!
You can adjust the spice level to your preference by adding in more or less buffalo sauce. If you want this chili to be kid friendly (or if you're sensitive to spice), we suggest starting with just ¼ cup of buffalo sauce and tasting before adding more.
Once the chicken is cooked, we remove it and puree the broth (with an immersion blender) before adding the shredded chicken, beans, Greek yogurt and cheese in. It makes for a super creamy, rich, absolutely delicious chili, but you can skip that step if you prefer a chunkier chili.
