Instructions

Preheat Grill - Start by getting your grill preheating for direct heat to Medium-High (about 450 degrees F).
Prep Chicken - If you didn't buy thinner pieces of chicken, then cover the regular chicken breasts with plastic wrap before using a meat mallet to pound the chicken to a thinner, even thickness. Cut them in half so you have four 'sandwich-sized' pieces. Season the chicken pieces on both sides with the spices.
Grill Chicken - Place the seasoned chicken on the grill and grill on the first side for about 5 minutes, flip and grill for about 4 minutes more, then brush with the buffalo sauce and cook for 1 more minute before flipping and repeating to other side. The chicken should read 165 degrees F on an internal thermometer.
Serve - Allow chicken to rest for a few minutes before placing on buns, with lettuce, and dressing of choice. Enjoy!

Notes

Store leftover chicken in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
