The recipe is easy to make and delivers a restaurant-quality meal at home. With tender chicken, crunchy vegetables, and a spicy, creamy cheese sauce, every bite is a treat. Spend less time cooking and more time enjoying this delicious dish.<\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Buffalo Chicken Pasta Bake<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Penne pasta:<\/strong> Pasta provides a hearty base that pairs perfectly with the creamy sauce and tender chicken. Alternatively, any short pasta like rotini or rigatoni will work. Use whole-grain or gluten-free pasta for a healthier twist.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken breasts:<\/strong> Boneless, skinless chicken breasts add protein and a tender texture. For a juicier option, you can use boneless skinless thighs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Carrots:<\/strong> This root vegetable adds sweetness and a slight crunch to the dish. Bell peppers or zucchini can be used for a different texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Celery ribs:<\/strong> Provide a classic buffalo chicken texture. Chopped green beans or peas are great alternatives.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Red onion:<\/strong> These have a mild, sweet flavor that complements the other ingredients. Yellow or white onions can be used instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic cloves:<\/strong> Enhance the overall flavor with their aromatic quality. Garlic powder (1\/2 teaspoon) can serve as a substitute.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Blue cheese salad dressing:<\/strong> Adds a tangy, creamy component. Ranch dressing can be used for a milder taste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mayonnaise:<\/strong> Provides creaminess and binds the sauce. Use plain Greek yogurt, which is great as a lighter option.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Louisiana-style hot sauce:<\/strong> Gives the dish its signature buffalo flavor. Any preferred hot sauce will work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Swiss cheese:<\/strong> Melts beautifully to create a creamy, gooey topping. Mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese are good alternatives.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dry bread crumbs:<\/strong> Add a crunchy topping for texture contrast. Panko or crushed cornflakes can be used instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter:<\/strong> Enhances the breadcrumb topping, giving it a golden brown finish. Margarine can be used as a replacement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Cook the pasta<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2065552\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/Buffalo-Chicken-Bake_TOHD24_78980_OrlyCatz_03.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Buffalo Chicken Bake Tohd24 78980 Orlycatz 03\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Orly Catz for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Cook the penne pasta according to directions until al dente.
