Step-by-Step Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, milk, buffalo wing sauce, blue cheese dressing, hot sauce, black pepper, and sazon until smooth. Fold in the shredded cooked chicken and refrigerate the mixture while you cook the pasta.

Bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package directions until al dente. Add the broccoli florets during the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking so they become tender but not mushy. Drain well, rinse under cold water to stop the cooking, and let the pasta mixture cool briefly.
