Instructions
- Cook the Buffalo Chicken Bites: Prepare the Farm Rich Buffalo Chicken Bites according to the package instructions, ensuring they are cooked thoroughly and heated to the recommended internal temperature.
- Prepare the Spicy Avocado Ranch Sauce: While the chicken is cooking, combine the avocado, Greek yogurt, buttermilk, fresh dill, parsley, onion powder, kosher salt, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and cayenne pepper in a blender.
