A note about serious food allergies

Buffalo wings often seem like an indulgent appetizer, with creamy dressings and, well, wings. We're adding a touch of the healthy here, with fresh lettuce and crisp carrot. Throw a dash of blue cheese on it, and we've turned the perfect heat of the wings into a crunchy, yummy dinner for two.

    Prepare the Chicken

    Line a plate with a paper towel.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 3 Tbsp. olive oil. Let oil heat, 5 minutes.

    After 5 minutes, carefully place chicken in hot oil, panko-side down, and cook until chicken is golden brown and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 3-4 minutes per side.
