2. Interactive Ingredients Checklist & Keto / High-Protein Swaps
When it comes to the ingredients, I like to think outside the box.
Instead of using traditional buffalo sauce, I opt for Frank’s RedHot sauce for a deeper, more complex flavor.
And don’t even get me started on the importance of using fresh cilantro and chives for that extra oomph of freshness!

Chef Sofia’s Tested Swaps (High-Protein · Keto/Low-Carb · Air Fryer)
• High-Protein Boost: Use 1/2 cup Greek yogurt + 1/4 cup chopped fresh chives instead of cream cheese for an extra 6g of protein!
• Keto & Low-Carb Swap: Swap the mozzarella cheese with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese for a lower-carb option.
• Air Fryer Option: Use the air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 8-10 minutes, shaking halfway through, for a crispy exterior and juicy interior.
Recommended Skillet & Air Fryer Tools
• Cast-iron skillet or air fryer basket
