- Brush one side of the chicken thighs with the buffalo hummus mixture. Lay the chicken thighs down on the grill with the sauce side down. Brush the other side with the buffalo sauce.

Notes
Servings were calculated with the recommended serving size of 4 oz. of chicken.
We like to serve these up over rice with broccoli but you can eat the buffalo chicken over a salad, in pizza, or dunked in your favorite blue cheese dressing alongside carrots and celery. We've even used it for buffalo chicken sandwiches!
