• ½ of a yellow onion, diced
• 2 carrots, diced
• 2 stalk of celery, diced
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ cup low sodium chicken broth or water
• 8 ounce can tomato sauce
• ¼ cup buffalo wing sauce (I use Frank’s Buffalo Wing Sauce)
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

Directions

• Over medium high heat, spray a large skillet generously with cooking spray or add a tablespoon of oil.
• When the skillet is hot, sauté the onion, carrots and celery until they start to soften, about 3 minutes.
• Add in the minced garlic and sauté another minute.
• Add in the ground chicken and break it up into crumbles with a wooden spoon.
• Season with a teaspoon of kosher salt and black pepper to taste.
• Cook the chicken and vegetables until the meat is cooked through and no longer pink.
• Add in the chicken broth or water and scrape up any bits from the bottom of the skillet.
• In a small bowl or measuring glass whisk together the tomato sauce, wing sauce, Worcestershire and apple cider vinegar.
• Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables and stir together until everything is coated.
• Turn the heat down to low and simmer for about 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
• Serve on hamburger buns topped with the blue cheese ranch sauce.
• In a small bowl add in the Greek yogurt and crumbled blue cheese.
• Use the back of a fork to mash the blue cheese into the yogurt.
• Whisk in the buttermilk and remaining ingredients.
• Serve immediately on top of the sloppy Joes or cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
