Ingredients
Produce
- 2 large cucumbers
- 2 tbsp chopped green onions
- 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Meat
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
Dairy
- 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Condiments & Seasonings
- ¼ cup buffalo sauce
- 1 tbsp ranch seasoning
- Ranch or blue cheese dressing, for dipping (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the cucumber slices: Slice the cucumbers lengthwise into thin ribbons using a mandoline or vegetable peeler. Pat the cucumber slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, ensuring they are not soggy for easier rolling.
- Make the buffalo chicken filling: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, Greek yogurt, ranch seasoning, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped green onions, and chopped fresh parsley. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken with the flavors.
- Assemble the rolls: Place a spoonful of the buffalo chicken mixture at one end of each cucumber slice. Carefully roll the cucumber slice tightly, enclosing the filling. Use a toothpick to secure each roll if needed to prevent unrolling.
- Serve: Arrange the assembled cucumber rolls on a serving platter. Garnish with extra fresh parsley for a pop of color. Serve immediately with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side for dipping if desired.
Notes
- Rotisserie chicken is a convenient option that works great for quick preparation.
- Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce according to your preferred spice level, adding more for extra heat or less for milder flavor.
- These rolls are best served fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 1 day; however, the cucumber may release moisture so serve soon after assembling for optimal taste and texture.
