Instructions
Pat dry the chicken breasts with a paper towel.
Season both sides with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Place chicken breasts into a bowl and pour buffalo sauce over top. Mix to fully coat the chicken. Let marinate for 15-30 minutes.
Heat the grill to 400F.
Place the chicken breasts onto the grill, smooth side down. Discard any leftover buffalo sauce.
Grill the chicken breasts on direct heat for 12 to 16 minutes, depending on the size of the breasts, making sure to flip the chicken breasts at the halfway mark. If using a grill, keep the lid of the grill closed between flipping.
Remove the breasts from the grill and allow the chicken to rest for at least five minutes before serving. Cover with foil if possible.
Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing if desired.
Notes
If using a grill pan, make sure to heat up the pan with some oil first.
