Keto Buffalo Chicken Skewers With Cheese Dipping Sauce

With football season coming up, I can’t help but think of some of those delicious game day recipes my friends would serve at house parties.  While I personally don’t watch football, I can certainly appreciate the foods that football season brings. Comfort foods like hot dogs, barbeque, and buffalo chicken recipes are on my mind more than ever around this time of year.

Unfortunately, most of these recipes have enough carbs to put me in a food coma for days.  So, I came up with this keto buffalo chicken skewer recipe that is the perfect low carb food for game day or any other meal for that matter. I pair the skewers with my delicious cream cheese dipping sauce for the win!

Note:  This cheese sauce is on the stickier side.  That’s how I personally like my cheese dips and sauces, however if you like cheese dip on the runnier side this may not be for you.
