Ingredients
  

  • 1-1/2 pounds lean ground chicken
  • 1 celery rib, diced
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup Louisiana-style hot sauce
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons yellow mustard
  • 12 Bibb or Boston lettuce leaves
  • Crumbled blue cheese (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Heat a large cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground chicken and cook, crumbling it as it browns, for about 3 minutes.
  • Add the diced celery and pepper, stirring frequently. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink and the celery is crisp-tender.
  • Mix in the ketchup, hot sauce, brown sugar, cider vinegar, and mustard. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • To assemble, spoon the buffalo chicken mixture into each lettuce leaf and top with crumbled blue cheese if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
