Sheet Pan Buffalo Ranch Chicken.

Sheet Pan Buffalo Ranch Chicken with Greek Yogurt Ranch – crispy, ranch chicken baked to perfection, then tossed in homemade buffalo sauce with creamy Greek yogurt ranch. This almost effortless sheet pan dinner is perfect for any night of the week! Serve it as a salad, over rice, or with crispy homemade fries for a meal that’s as fun as it is delicious. Restaurant-quality flavors, made right at home!

The idea to share this recipe came from the many requests I’ve received for my Greek yogurt ranch dressing! A few weeks ago, I shared how I make it on my Instagram stories—but not the actual recipe! That got me thinking… how could I use this ranch dressing in a brand-new dish?

Of course, buffalo chicken came right to mind. Hands down, this is my classic, most made, and most requested buffalo chicken.

I discovered this sheet-pan method a little over a year ago and now use the recipe all the time. It’s perfect because it’s super easy but also delicious!

For this recipe, I like to use a homemade herb blend of ranch seasoning—dried parsley, chives, dill, onion, and garlic. Then, I toss the crispy sheet pan chicken in my bold buffalo sauce, letting all those delicious flavors meld together.

The herb mix adds just the right touch of ranch flavor without being overpowering.

My family and I adore this recipe!

Steps

Step 1: the chicken

You want to start with the cubed raw chicken. You can use breasts or thighs, or a mix of the two, as I do. Toss the cubed chicken with a mix of seasonings. I call this my homemade Ranch Herb Blend: smoked paprika, dried parsley, dried chives, dried dill, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Next, add flour, then toss again.

The flour helps the chicken get crispy in the oven. It’s just a light coating—enough to add the perfect crunch without making it fully breaded, just enough so the sauce clings beautifully to every bite.

Step 2: the buffalo sauce

I’ve made this sauce a million times—it’s one of our absolute favorites! Here’s how I do it: Mix together the hot sauce (Franks is my go-to), melted butter, a couple of teaspoons of seasoned salt, chipotle chili powder, and a pinch of black pepper. Melt everything together on the stove until just combined.

The chipotle chili powder is what makes this buffalo sauce special. Sometimes, I’ll add smoked paprika too. But I usually let the chipotle shine with its perfect balance of smoke and spice. It’s so delicious! If you’re sensitive to heat, simply leave out the chipotle.

Step 3: finish the chicken

Once the chicken is crispy, pour the buffalo sauce over it, sprinkle on the remaining herb blend, and let it cook a little longer. The coating will soak up all that delicious sauce, making every bite extra flavorful!

It is so delish!

Step 4: mix the ranch

This is so good! I use plain whole milk Greek yogurt; Straus is my favorite brand right now.

To balance the tang, I mix in just a couple of spoonfuls of mayo, which also adds that classic ranch flavor. Then, I stir in buttermilk, Worcestershire sauce, dried parsley, chives, dill, onion powder, and garlic powder, seasoning it all with salt and pepper.

You’d never guess this has a Greek yogurt base—it’s better than anything from the store! Sometimes, I like to spice it up by adding a jalapeño.

This chicken is so delicious with homemade French fries or sweet potato fries. You can also serve it over rice with a side salad or toss it into a salad—so many options! Just be sure to use lots of ranch!

It’s the perfect dinner for the whole family and also works great for meal prep. Store it in the fridge or freezer for an easy, flavorful meal anytime!
