Instructions

Preheat skillet over medium heat for 1 minute.
Add diced chicken, chopped bacon, and ranch seasoning; cook until chicken is golden and reaches 165°F internal temperature.
Drain excess grease and set chicken and bacon aside.
Reduce heat to low; add butter, cream cheese, and almond milk to skillet; whisk until melted and combined.
Stir in half the cheddar cheese and whisk until melted; gradually increase heat to simmer.
Add chicken and bacon back into skillet; drizzle buffalo sauce over mixture.
Top with remaining cheddar cheese; cover and simmer for 5 minutes to melt cheese and blend flavors.
Optional: Broil skillet 1-2 minutes for a crispy top.

Notes

Avoid overcooking chicken to keep it tender. Adjust almond milk to thin sauce if needed. Customize spiciness with more or less buffalo sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley or green onions for extra flavor. Store leftovers in airtight container up to 3 days.
