A simple way to put leftover or pre-cooked chicken (Costco's rotisserie meat works great) or turkey to work. That signature Frank’s heat and flavor adds a “wing” note to this versatile dish. Great as either a main over rice or egg noodles, or as a dip -- or a fancy nacho topping! Great, warm way to feed the football crowd on a Sunday, as well.
