Follow The Directions

01

Step

5 mins

Prepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled. (5 minutes)

02

Step

5 mins

Season and Marinate: Generously season the chicken breasts on both sides with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil and dry ranch dressing mix until well combined. Brush the carrots and celery with this ranch-infused oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. (5 minutes)

03

Step

6 mins

Grill the Chicken and Celery: Place the chicken breasts and celery stalks on the preheated grill. Grill the chicken and celery for approximately 6 minutes, undisturbed. (6 minutes)

04

Step

6 mins

Baste and Flip: Flip the chicken breasts over and generously baste with half of the Buffalo wing sauce. Add the carrots to the grill. Grill for another 6 minutes. (6 minutes)

05

Step

6 mins

Final Baste and Cook: Flip the chicken, carrots, and celery once more. Baste the chicken with the remaining Buffalo wing sauce. Continue grilling for a final 6 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). (6 minutes)

06

Step

5 mins

Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken, carrots, and celery from the grill. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful breast. (5 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider brining the chicken breasts for 30 minutes prior to grilling. This will help them retain moisture and enhance their tenderness.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature.
Adjust the amount of Buffalo wing sauce according to your spice preference. For a milder flavor, use less sauce or mix it with a touch of honey or butter.
Feel free to experiment with different types of wood chips for smoking during grilling to add another layer of flavor.
