Notes

Tammy’s Tips Using a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store is a fantastic time-saver for this recipe! The addition of feta cheese provides a tangy saltiness that perfectly complements the buffalo sauce. If you want a bit of extra color, you can sprinkle a little extra cheddar or some blue cheese crumbles on top during the last 10 minutes of baking.
