Buffalo chicken recipes are notoriously high in sodium content. At Health eCooks, we try to minimize the amount of sodium in all of our recipes to better fit into a heart-healthy diet. In order to reduce the sodium in this chicken sandwich recipe, opt for reduced-sodium hot sauce and use less in the chicken marinade. If available at your grocery store, substitute low-sodium blue cheese dressing to further reduce sodium intake. Lastly, be mindful of how the chicken is prepared. If you are cooking the chicken ahead of time or using leftover chicken, consider the amount of salt used to season it; rather than adding salt, use more herbs and spices for flavor without worrying about extra sodium.
