Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Potatoes is an easy dinner recipe made completely in the crockpot! This one is so good if you love buffalo sauce. This meal comes together pretty easily the hardest part is probably chopping the potatoes and chicken into cubes.

Ingredients

2 chicken breasts
4 – 5 medium sized russet potatoes
olive oil + salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika (for potatoes)
1 onion
2 TBSP minced garlic
1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper
1 tsp each of paprika and ranch seasoning
1/2 cup of Sweet Baby Ray’s Mild Buffalo sauce
1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese
Chopped green onions

Prep Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Potatoes

The only real prep work required with this recipe is making sure you have one pound of chicken breast thawed and chopping the potatoes.

Start by washing and scrubbing the potatoes. Use a sharp knife to cut the potatoes into small cubes. It’s important to try to cut them into all about the same size, so that they cook evenly in the crockpot.

Next, cut the chicken into cubes. Chop an onion and measure out any seasonings or sauce needed for the recipe.

Make Buffalo Chicken Potatoes

Now that all ingredients are prepped it’s time to make the recipe! I start by getting out a crockpot and spraying it with cooking spray.

Add the chopped potatoes, onions, and minced garlic to the crockpot.

Season the potatoes with some salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. I don’t use exact measurements for this part of the recipe.

Stir the potatoes, onions, and seasonings together well.

Add the chopped chicken and season the chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, and dry ranch seasoning. Add about 1/2 cup of Sweet Baby Ray’s Mild Buffalo Sauce over the top of the chicken.

Cover with the crockpot lid and cook on low for about 6 hours. All crockpot cook differently, so cooking times may vary. In my crockpot the potatoes are usually tender in about 6 hours.

Serve Buffalo Chicken Potatoes

Once the chicken is cooked and the potatoes are tender top the dish with shredded mozzarella cheese. I like to let this sit in the crockpot for just a few minutes until the cheese has melted.

Serve with the chopped green onions and a drizzle of ranch dressing over the top. I made a Caesar salad to go with this, but roasted broccoli, or another vegetable would also be good.
