For a richer flavor, consider browning the chicken thighs in a skillet before adding them to the slow cooker. This adds depth and complexity to the chili. If you prefer a milder chili, reduce the amount of buffalo wing sauce or use a mild variety. You can also add a touch of honey or brown sugar to balance the heat. The chili can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave before serving. Feel free to customize the toppings to your liking. Diced avocado, crumbled blue cheese, or a sprinkle of cilantro would all be delicious additions. For a vegetarian option, substitute the chicken with cauliflower florets or cubed sweet potatoes.
