Step 1

To make the cheesy BBQ Buffalo chicken tater tot skillet, start by adding hash brown rounds or tater tots to an air fryer and cooking at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes. I like to shake these around at least a few times while they cook. The tater tots could also be cooked in the oven following the directions on the package.

Step 2

Next, cut the chicken up into smaller cubes. Add 2 TBSP of butter to a skillet over medium high heat.

Step 3

Add the chicken to the skillet and season well with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.

Step 4

Cook the chicken until it is done and reaches at least 165 degrees with an internal meat thermometer. Once the chicken is cooked, turn the heat down to low and add 1 TBSP of minced garlic.

Step 5

Next, remove the pan from the heat and add your favorite BBQ sauce right on top of the chicken I usually use Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ sauce for this. Also go ahead and add buffalo sauce. I like using the Mild Sweet Baby Ray’s Buffalo Sauce! I don’t usually use exact measurements for this part. I just add equal parts of each BBQ and buffalo sauce and make sure it’s enough to coat the chicken.

Step 6

Once the tater tots are cooked pour them into the skillet of chicken. Stir gently and top with about 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.

Step 7

From here, you can put the skillet in the oven under broil to melt the cheese. Just watch it so it doesn’t burn! If you don’t have an oven safe skillet you can keep it on the stove on low and add a lid to help melt the cheese.

Step 8

Once the cheese is melted, it’s time to eat! I topped mine with ranch dressing and chopped green onions.
