I know I already shared a Chicken Soup recipe this month, but is there really ever too much Chicken Soup? And THIS recipe is something I’ve never seen before - Buffalo Chicken Soup 🔥 FIRE, right?!

Servings: 4

¼ cup hot pepper sauce

½ tsp. garlic powder

¼ tsp. sea salt (or Himalayan salt)

1 lb. + 4 oz. raw chicken breast, skinless, boneless

3 Tbsp. cornstarch + 3 Tbsp. water (combine to make a slurry)

Instructions

1. Heat ghee in large skillet over medium-high heat; cook onion, carrot, and celery until tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

2. Place vegetable mixture in a slow cooker. Add in stock, sour cream, blue cheese, cream cheese, pepper sauce, garlic powder, and salt; mix well.
