Chinese Five Spice at stop n shop

Buffalo Chicken

1 pound chicken tenders or cubed chicken breast
1 packet IP Potato Puree
Franks hot sauce

Mix IP Potato puree with 2-3 T. water (or to desired consistancy, think pancake batter)
Add 1 T. Franks hotsauce (or more or less to taste) to potato puree (this will also thin out the puree consistancy). Coat chicken in puree mixture. In a saute pan, heat 2 T. olive oil over medium heat. Transfer chicken into saute pan and cook chicken until cooked, 4-5 minutes per side.

Serve with celery and Walden Farms Blue Cheese dressing.

If you like, you can add a bit of spicy mustard and chopped hard boiled egg to the Walden Farms Blue Cheese dressing. The egg gives the dressing the consistancy of real blue cheese dressing.

Thank LizRR. She is the instigator (ahem) I mean originator
Now that she's in maintenance, I'm just carrying-on tradition!
I'm gonna have to switch to RTD or something else after an inadvertent discovery that I'll no longer be using my go-to Dark Chocolate Pudding. It has soy protein and I'm cutting that out due to thyroid problems

Ok....THANKS LIZRR!!!!

Lisa, sorry to hear about the soy issue.

I started purchasing RTD's thru New Lifestyle Diet back in 2011 (when someone else on this forum did the research and found it was the same manufacturer that makes it for IP). I purchase in bulk (spend over $200.00) to get free shipping. Also, they have deals every month for $20.00 off your order. I save over a dollar at least per container!

Just thought you'd want to know.


Oh.....OP......GO PATS!!!!!!!

Go Pats!!!
