My family loves this quick Buffalo chicken Alfredo! It became an instant favorite. I like to use Frank’s cayenne pepper sauce, but if you like things on the milder side, just use a little less. \u2014Lauren Wyler, Dripping Springs,

American expat family living in France. It's lucky we found Franks Hot Sauce at our local supermarket to make this recipe. It makes the difference! <\/p>
Since we live in France, I had to tweak the recipe a little as I couldn't find Alfredo sauce at the supermarket. <\/p>
I baked chicken thighs and then shredded them and used the drippings plus water to cook the gnocchi. Used cream but no parmesan for the sauce. Added my little jar of Franck's Hot Sauce. Of course, France has the best bleu cheese (roquefort) for the garnish with the chopped up celery. <\/p>
Home run! My kids loved this, and I found a new way to use gnocchi. <\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}}]},"video":{"data":{"status":204},"message":"No shortcode found in recipe"},"rms_legacy_id":"182783","romance_copy_dek":"My family loves this quick Buffalo chicken Alfredo!
