Buffalo Chicken Dip is a creamy, spicy, and cheesy appetizer that combines the bold flavors of buffalo wings with the comfort of a warm dip. Perfect for game days, parties, or any casual get-together, it’s a crowd-pleaser that’s easy to make and even easier to devour.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken recommended)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • Crumbled blue cheese (optional, for topping)
  • Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch or blue cheese dressing until smooth.
  3. Stir in shredded chicken and half of the shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Spread the mixture into a baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes, until bubbly and hot.
  6. Optional: Broil for 2–3 minutes until the top is golden brown.
  7. Garnish with chopped green onions or crumbled blue cheese before serving.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt for a lighter version.
  • Increase buffalo sauce or add cayenne pepper for extra heat.
  • Substitute canned chicken if needed, though rotisserie chicken is preferred.
  • Serve with chips, crackers, or fresh veggies like celery and carrots.
  • Can be made ahead and baked just before serving.
  • Slow cooker option: combine ingredients and cook on low for 2–3 hours.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
