Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine chicken, hot sauce, cheese, chives and ranch. Roll into golf ball-sized balls. Chill in fridge as you set up dredging station.
Grab three shallow bowls, filling one with flour, one with the beaten eggs, and the third with panko and pepper (mixing the two ingredients to combine). Dip each buffalo chicken ball in flour, then the eggs, then the panko mixture. Set the balls about 1” apart on an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. Spritz buffalo chicken balls with cooking spray.
Bake 7 minutes, flip balls and respray with cooking spray. Bake 7 minutes more. Serve with ranch dressing for dipping.
