Buffalo Chicken Cheese Balls 

Ingredients

• 1 rotisserie chicken
• 1/3 cup Frank's Hot Sauce
• 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 2 cups sharp Cheddar
• 1 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 eggs beaten
• 2 cups italian seasoned panko bread crumbs
• Vegetable oil, for frying

Have oil heated to 350 degrees F.

Discard skin on chicken. Shred chicken in bowl and add the hot sauce, pepper and cheese. Roll the chicken into 2-ounce balls, about the size of a golf ball.

Place the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs in 3 separate bowls. Roll each ball in the flour, then the egg and then the bread crumbs. 

When the oil is hot fry the chicken balls in batches. Cook for about 2 minutes per batch or until golden brown. Remove the chicken to paper towel lined plate to drain the excess oil. Serve with ranch or blue cheese. 

Tip: A deep fryer gives the best results. If you fry on stove top, make sure to move the balls around during the frying process for even browning.
