Buffalo Chicken Dip is a creamy, spicy, and cheesy dip made with shredded chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing, perfect for parties and gatherings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup buffalo sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing. Mix until well combined and smooth.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese, reserving a little of each cheese for topping if desired.
- Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker and spread it evenly.
- Cover and cook on low for 2 to 3 hours, or until the dip is hot and bubbly. Stir occasionally to ensure even heating.
- If using, sprinkle the reserved cheese on top during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
- Once done, garnish with chopped green onions if desired. Serve warm with tortilla chips, celery sticks, or crackers.
Notes
- For a spicier dip, add diced jalapeños or a dash of cayenne pepper to the mixture.
- To make it lighter, substitute the cream cheese with Greek yogurt and use a low-fat ranch dressing.
