Those darn breaded chicken strips from the deli at the grocery store looked too good to pass up today, so I gave in and bought them. Just another reason you shouldn’t grocery shop while your hungry.
The first thing that came to my mind was to make a buffalo chicken sandwich for lunch and I was so incredibly happy eating it! So bad, but sooo good! If you ever give in to buying chicken strips, or have extra chicken around, this sammy is a must. Enjoy!
Buffalo Chicken Sandwich with Gorgonzola Crumbles
Ingredients
- 1 Soft Sandwich Roll of Choice
- Mayonnaise for Roll
- Finely Shredded Lettuce
- 2 Large Pre-Cooked Chicken Strips warm (I used ones from grocery stores’ deli)
- ¼ Cup Buffalo Wing Sauce I use Frank’s
- 1 Tablespoon Butter
- ¼ Cup Gorgonzola Cheese, Crumbled
Instructions
- Spread mayonnaise on both sides of the roll. Layer the bottom roll with lettuce then chicken strips that have been thinly sliced, about ½ inch.
- Place wing sauce and butter in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, or until butter is melted. Stir to combine and pour over chicken.
- Top with crumbled gorgonzola cheese and close with the top roll. Enjoy!

Kim,
You’ll take the #1, #2 and #3 combo
I’ll take the # 1 combo with a diet coke!
Thanks Lisa,
I love new food blogs!
Hey Jen.. I saw another fun recipe blog on my friend Lisa’s. It’s called hotgarlic.blogspot.com
Just thought you might want to see it. It’s no picky palate..but I saw a few things that look fun.
Hi Jill,
Thanks so much for sharing that. Glad your kids enjoyed the sandwich! I think I’ll try BBQ sauce next time I make them!
I’m back…I made these for dinner tonight and everyone loved them…my 4 year old told me I make yummy dinners :D. And the barbeque sauce with the jazzy ingredients added turned out great! My 9 year old asked if we could have them often! Thanks!
Hi Emiline,
I totally agree, these are sooo worth the extra calories, in fact I’m about to enjoy another tonight!
Kellypea,
I love gorgonzola too. I want to make a gorgonzola cream sauce for pasta this week.
Kristen,
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I am learning everyday about new “foodie” things. That’s one of the best things about this hobby, is there is always something new to learn and experiment with. I look forward to talking food with you!
Jill,
Thanks for posting, you are so sweet. I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the recipes. BBQ sauce would work great as a substitute on these sandwiches. You could add a little honey and chipotle to the BBQ sauce to jazz it up a bit, that would be great! Let me know how it turns out!
Hi Jenny
I’ve been reading your blog faithfully since you started…in fact I have a link on mine to yours. Everything always looks so good and I’ve even made some things. I have a question…could I use barbeque sauce instead of wing sauce on these sandwiches? Thanks for all the yummy recipes-yours is my favorite foodie blog!
Hi Jenny!
I saw your comment on the Recipe Market, thanks for doing that! It’s fun to meet new people. I am glad you like to check the RM, I love it, obviously.
I have to say BRAVO for all your dedication to food and the creation of all things YUMMY. I LOVE your site, I check it often. I heard about it from one of my friends via email. You are much more of a foodie than I, so I am anxious to learn from you!
Glad to meet you!

This sounds really delicious. Gorgonzola is a favorite around my house in just about anything.
Ohhh, I love Gorgonzola, and spicy things. These sound so good, and I think they’re worth the extra calories.
