Instructions

  1. In a saute pan (fitted with a lid) melt hte butter on medium heat. Then add in the diced celery, sautee  for 2 minutes. While the celery cooks, shred the cooked rotisserie chicken and set to the side.
  2. Sprinkle the flour on to the celery mixture, then stir in the milk, parsley, dehydrated onion, and buffalo sauce. Cook for 2 minutes until thick then add in the shredded cheddar cheese and bleu cheese. Turn off the heat, mix well and add in the chicken.

Notes

  • I use par-cooked pasta. If you can't find that or need to use gluten-free, just cook the pasta separately to al dente first.
