BUFFALO CHICKEN SOUP
Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
3 stalks celery, diced
1 small onion, diced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup half-and-half cream
3 cups water 
1 cube chicken bouillon
2 cups cubed cooked chicken
1/4 cup buffalo wing sauce, or more to taste
11/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat; cook the celery and onion in the melted butter until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the flour and allow to cook until absorbed, about 2 minutes more.
Slowly stir the half-and-half and water into the mixture.
Dissolve the bouillon in the liquid.
Stir in the chicken, buffalo wing sauce, and Cheddar cheese.
Season with salt and pepper.
Reduce heat to medium-low.
Stirring occasionally, allow the soup to simmer until the  cheese has melted completely, about 10 minutes.
 

Interesting.
 
I think I'd forget the water and serve it over toast or something.

Ooh. I don't know. I love Buffalo wings, I just don't know if I'd like it as soup. I'd certainly give it a shot though. I just think the wing sauce would get too... cloying might not be the right word, but all that liquid with that flavor might be "too much of a good thing".
 
Mar, I'd probably do the same thing, but make the chicken chunks larger and put it in a soft sub roll. A higher chicken to sauce ratio.

If Buffalo wing soup is the same thing, I have had it, unsurprisingly, at the Anchor Bar in Buffalo.  You can find a photo of it in the Roadfood review.  This had a very strong blue cheese flavor.

Well, I have never tried buffalo chicken in my life. It will be great to try this tasty dish.
