If you know me, you know that I looove anything spicy. I think if there is a condiment I love most, it would probably be hot sauce. Frank’s Red Hot in particular is one of my absolute favorites. I love that the spice is not overpowering and it is the perfect blend of flavor and heat.
Frank’s is what I consider the classic buffalo wing sauce. Perfectly tangy and flavorful, it immediately makes you think of that classic bar top delicacy. I feel like Frank’s Red Hot is an absolute staple and almost everyone I know loves it. For me, I always have a bottle on hand since it has a wide range of appeal no matter who is at your table. Even for minimal hot sauce users, Frank’s Hot Sauce is usually a hit. The perfect complement to sandwiches and wings, it gives just the right amount of heat and elevated flavor. My coworkers and I love this sauce so much that keeping a bottle in the office has become a must!
It’s absolutely delish on chicken wings, rice, and tacos. You can also use it in marinades for other chicken dishes and in sauces. I also surprisingly love it on my eggs (anyone else agree?) It’s really good on anything! My favorite dish to incorporate Frank’s Red Hot in is: Buffalo Chicken Dip 😋. It’s one of my favorite things ever and sooo easy to make (and I’m totally about that ‘easy to make’ life). I’ve put the recipe I follow down below:
Mimi’s Buffalo Chicken Dip
READY IN: 30mins SERVES: 15
YIELD: 3 3/4 cups
INGREDIENTS
2 (10 ounce) cans chicken breasts
1 (8 ounce) package fat-free cream cheese, softened
1⁄2 cup frank’s redhot original cayenne pepper sauce
1⁄2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1⁄4 cup fat-free ranch dressing
1⁄4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
INSTRUCTIONS:
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
-Place cream cheese in a medium bowl and stir until smooth.
-Mix in Frank’s RedHot, mozzarella cheese, ranch dressing, and yogurt.
-Stir in chicken until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture evenly into a deep 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until mixture is heated through.
-Stir well and enjoy!
(P.S. I love dipping carrot sticks and red bell pepper chunks into this dip, but I’ve also dunked baked tortilla chips into it and used it as a sandwich spread!)
-Alternative! To make this dish FAST, skip the oven altogether. Prepare dip according to the directions, but in a microwave-safe dish. Then microwave uncovered on high for 5 minutes (stopping and stirring halfway through cooking), or until hot. OR you can also throw and everything right into the crock pot!
I’m always looking for new recipes and ways to incorporate hot sauce, so let me know what you all are cooking!
Frank’s Red Hot was kind enough to send me a ton of goodies which included: hot sauce (of course), a backpack, hoodie, water bottle, power bank, key chain, and more. Thank you so much to the Frank’s Red Hot team, I love it. I always wish I could carry Frank’s Red Hot wherever I go, and now I can!
