Grilled Chicken Buffalo Pasta made with your favorite pasta, boneless chicken breasts and buffalo wing hot sauce.
My family loves buffalo wings or basically any food with buffalo hot sauce to be specific. This Grilled Buffalo Chicken Pasta; which has all of the elements of a classic Buffalo wings, was AMAZING and so simple to make.
In fact, our youngest daughter makes this often for herself in her college apartment. It only takes 30 minutes to make and is a great use for leftover grilled chicken or store bought rotisserie chicken. ~Enjoy!
Ingredients Needed
For this recipe you'll need the following ingredients:
- grilled boneless chicken breasts: you can grill them yourself or purchase those grilled chicken strips in the refrigerator section in the grocery store. You can also use shredded rotisserie chicken!
- pasta: use any kind of pasta you prefer!
- Buffalo Wing Sauce: For ease, I used jarred buffalo wing sauce.
- ranch dressing: Or you can use chunky bleu cheese dressing
- parsley
How do you make Grilled Chicken Buffalo Pasta?

Tranelle Butler says
This was amazing. I used ziti because I didn't have penne pasta. I added to the chicken; shrimp shitake mushrooms and capers. Topped it with shredded parmesan cheese, parsley and crushed red pepper.
Carrie's Experimental Kitchen says
I'm so glad you enjoyed the recipe and made it your own Tranelle! Thanks for stopping back to let me know. 🙂
not my real name says
will this work if I use Alfredo sauce instead of blue cheese
Carrie's Experimental Kitchen says
Sure, it will just taste a little different.
Sara says
this looks amazing!! When I make the dip, I substitute ranch for blue cheese.. Do you think this would work here, as well? Just curious if anyone else had the same idea 🙂
Carrie's Experimental Kitchen says
I'm sure it would be fine Sara, in fact I might actually like it even better! Thanks for stopping by and let me know how it comes out. 🙂
Sara says
Thanks! I'm just not a blue cheese fan :p I will let you know how it is!
Barbara says
My husband was fortunate enough to be given a helping of this from Carrie and loved it, the rest of us did not get a chance to taste it since he ate the entire portion for lunch. Highly recommends it.

Oh my! This looks great. A nice change from the Buffalo Chicken dip everyone seems to be making. This is actually a meal with the same great taste! YUM!
Amrita says
I like how you used the marinade as a pasta sauce...I love playing with ingredients like that too. I've never heard of Moore's so I'll check them out. Lovely pictures! 🙂
