Combining two comfort food favorites—Buffalo chicken and Caesar salad—this dish is perfect for potlucks, weeknight dinners, or anytime you want something bold and delicious!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked rotini or penne pasta

  • 1 ½ cups cooked chicken breast, shredded

  • 1/3 cup Buffalo wing sauce

  • 1/3 cup Caesar dressing

  • 1/4 cup sour cream (for extra creaminess)

  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 cup chopped romaine or mixed greens

  • Optional: croutons for crunch

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a bowl, toss shredded chicken with Buffalo sauce.

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine pasta, Caesar dressing, sour cream, tomatoes, and greens.

  • Add Buffalo chicken and toss everything until evenly coated.

  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and top with croutons if using.

  • Serve chilled or slightly warm for a comforting kick

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a fast shortcut.

  • For more spice, drizzle with extra Buffalo sauce or add crushed red pepper.

  • Add bacon bits or blue cheese crumbles for a richer flavor.

  • Great as a make-ahead meal—just keep the greens separate until serving.
