Ingredients
Scale
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup cooked, shredded chicken
1/2 cup Buffalo style hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
1/2 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons blue cheese crumbles (optional)
For serving: tortilla chips, celery sticks, crackers
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease an 8×8 inch baking dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, shredded chicken, hot sauce, and ranch or blue cheese dressing. Mix until everything is well combined.
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the dip. If using, sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles over the cheddar.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let the dip cool for 5 minutes before serving warm with chips, celery, or crackers.
Notes
You can shred the chicken using two forks or a stand mixer with the paddle attachment for quick results.
For a slow cooker version, combine all ingredients (except blue cheese crumbles) in a small slow cooker. Cook on low for 2 hours or high for 1 hour. Stir before topping with cheese and cooking until melted.
Make this dip ahead of time by assembling it in the baking dish, covering it, and refrigerating for up to 24 hours. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking straight from the refrigerator.
