  • 1/4 cup buffalo sauce, mild or hot to taste Adjust based on your heat preference.
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened to room temperature Soften in the microwave for smooth mixing if needed.
  • 1 tablespoon chives, finely chopped Fresh chives can be swapped for green onions.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and dry the cucumber. Trim the ends and use a vegetable peeler to peel long strips from one end to the other, discarding the seeded core.
  2. In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, and softened cream cheese. Add chopped chives and stir until smooth. Adjust consistency with additional buffalo sauce or olive oil if needed.
  3. Season filling with salt and pepper to taste. Lay a cucumber strip flat, spread 1 tablespoon of filling along one edge, and roll tightly, seam side down.
  4. Repeat the process with remaining strips and filling. Chill rolls for 5 to 10 minutes to firm up.
