You’ll need these ingredients for your dip:
- 3 cups cooked chicken breast (Rotisserie chicken works great and saves tons of time.)
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 12 oz of Blue cheese or Ranch dressing (I used Blue cheese dressing)
- 1 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 – 2 cups Buffalo chicken wings sauce or hot sauce (Ted recommends Franks Hot Sauce)
- Blue cheese crumbles and fresh parsley for garnish is optional
It’s Simple to Make This Easy Game Day Dip
This dip is so simple! The easiest thing to do is to put chicken in a food processor and chop until crumbly.
If you don’t have a food processor, you can shred your chicken by hand or use a hand held mixer.
Recipe Directions:
Put the chicken into a casserole dish and press down until the bottom is completely covered, about 1/4 inch thick.
Sprinkle hot sauce over the chicken. Do not mix it in, just sprinkle the hot sauce on top of the pressed chicken until it is covered. Put as much as you would like on here. I usually don’t use more than a cup because the Franks hot sauce can make this dip very spicy.
Melt the cream cheese and combine with the dressing and pour the cream cheese mixture over the chicken. Again, do not mix! Just pour over the chicken until completely covered.
Bake for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Add the cheddar cheese to the top and bake a little more until it’s melted.
To save on calories and carbs, this Buffalo chicken dip is amazing served with celery or carrots! The crowd favorite is usually chips or bread though.
