fThis Instant Pot buffalo chicken chili is spicy and satisfying! If you like buffalo chicken dip or buffalo wings, you will love the flavors in this buffalo chicken chili! All you need are a few simple ingredients and following simple instructions! This Chili is perfect for game day, tailgating, or meal prep! Who knew that adding a cup of buffalo wing sauce would result in such a fantastic buffalo chicken chili recipe!
I was at a small get-together last weekend, and one of the other guests brought buffalo chicken dip. I remembered how much I love that stuff; I decided to make a buffalo chicken chili in my Instant Pot.
This Chili was crazy good. Buffalo chicken isn’t something I can get my three young sons to eat for dinner. This chicken chili was all about lunch meal prep for my husband and me I. Chili was so good. I am obsessed with this. You will want to use the sauté function before you pressure cook this Chili.
I think that bleu cheese belongs on top of this Chili. However, you might have a different opinion. If you love buffalo sauce, but you feel that this might be too spicy for you, you can lessen the amount of buffalo sauce you put in, or you can add some plain Greek yogurt to cool this down a bit.
Here is a video I made to help you make this!

I am sure you can add additional veggies if you like. I add corn to almost all of my chili recipes. I am sure bell peppers and onions would also taste great in this! I can’t reiterate enough how delicious this Chili was! I always use Frank’s Buffalo Sauce. I am partial to Frank’s for all of my hot sauce needs.
