Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or leftovers)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1/2 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Optional Garnishes

  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • Chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • Extra shredded cheddar or blue cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Shred the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces, using rotisserie chicken for convenience. Measure out the cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch or blue cheese dressing, and shredded cheddar cheese to have all ingredients ready for mixing.
  2. Mix the Dip Base: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, and ranch or blue cheese dressing. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly blended into a creamy, spicy mixture.
  3. Transfer and Top: Pour the mixture into a baking dish and smooth the top evenly. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the surface to create a flavorful, melty crust after baking.
  4. Bake Until Bubbling: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the dip for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese on top is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden.
  5. Add Fresh Garnishes and Serve: Optionally, sprinkle chopped green onions, fresh parsley, or additional cheese on top before serving. Serve the dip warm with your choice of chips, veggies, or crackers.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken to save time and enhance flavor.
  • Soften cream cheese before mixing for a smooth texture.
  • Adjust buffalo sauce quantity to control spiciness according to taste.
  • Use a shallow baking dish for even cooking and crispy edges.
  • Don’t skip the cheese topping—it creates a delicious golden crust.
