Say good-bye to bland, boring chicken recipes! This Buffalo chicken casserole features a spicy cream sauce over chicken and sautéed veggies. You will want to make this easy weeknight meal on repeat! It’s also perfect as a game-day meal!

First, this sinful sauce is super simple to make! Simply melt and stir together cream cheese, shredded cheese, butter, hot sauce, lime juice, and a maybe a bit of brown sugar. It’s basically Buffalo sauce with cheese. And, this sauce is so flavorful it’s the perfect opportunity to pack in those veggies! Plus, I love to serve over spaghetti squash for even more fiber.

Second, this dish can be served straight from the skillet in 45 minutes or less. Or, you could into a baking dish and quickly reheat the next day.

Creamy, comforting, and nutritious- now that’s what I call a complete meal!
