Ingredients
Scale
Dip Ingredients
- 2 cooked chicken breasts, shredded (from a rotisserie chicken)
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened (half of a standard 8-ounce block)
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¾ cup buffalo wing sauce
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing
Garnish
- 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
For Dipping
- Corn tortilla chips
- Carrot sticks
- Celery sticks
- Ruffle chips
- Baguette slices
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Baking Dish: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch or 9×7-inch baking dish, or an equivalent medium-sized dish, to prevent sticking and make serving easier.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the shredded rotisserie chicken, softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing. Use a spatula to mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Bake the Dip: Transfer the chicken and cheese mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, allowing the dip to heat through and the cheese to melt completely.
- Broil for a Crispy Top: After baking, switch the oven to broil on high and place the baking dish under the broiler for 2 to 5 minutes. Watch closely until the top turns golden and slightly crispy. If it browns too quickly, cover the dish loosely with foil to prevent burning.
- Serve and Enjoy: Remove the dish from the oven carefully as it will be hot. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately with your choice of corn tortilla chips, fresh veggies like carrot and celery sticks, ruffle chips, or baguette slices for dipping. Enjoy this creamy, spicy dip warm!
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds great flavor.
- Adjust the amount of buffalo wing sauce to control the spiciness.
- You can substitute ranch dressing with blue cheese dressing if preferred.
- If you want a thicker dip, add a little more shredded cheese before baking.
- Keep a close eye when broiling to avoid burning the dip.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
