Buffalo Wild Wings Crispy Chicken Breast

Moderate histamine

This crispy chicken breast is moderate, from the wheat flour breading, soybean oil, and paprika seasoning.

Most of this is cooked to order, which is the best case for histamine. Even so, a restaurant kitchen preps ahead and holds things warm through a service, so freshness varies more than it would at home. The rating above comes from the chain's published ingredients. If a dish is borderline for you, asking how it is prepared tells you more than the menu does.

It is a breaded, fried chicken breast seasoned with a garlic, onion, and paprika blend.

  • Wheat flour breading — the wheat and enriched wheat flour coating lands at moderate, which is the main thing lifting the level above the plain chicken.

  • Soybean oil and paprika extractives — the frying oil and the paprika seasoning are both moderate, adding to the overall total.

The chicken breast itself is the mildest part, so a grilled version is the gentler route.
