Ingredients
1 pound chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
½ cup buffalo sauce (Frank’s Red Hot recommended)
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
2 tablespoons blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing, for garnish
Fritos scoops, baguette slices, carrots, or celery, for dipping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, buffalo sauce, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Mix everything together with a large spatula until fully combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of a 1.5 qt baking dish.
- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the mixture.
- Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and drizzle with blue cheese or ranch dressing for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately with your choice of dipping options such as Fritos, baguette slices, or carrot/celery sticks.
Notes
- If you want it spicier, add more hot sauce to the buffalo sauce.
- For a faster option, microwave in a microwave-safe dish for several minutes until hot and bubbly.
- For a slow cooker option, cook the dip on low for 3 hours or high for 1 hour.
- Leftovers can be stored for up to 3 days in the fridge.
- This dip can be frozen before baking. Bake from frozen when ready to serve.
