Classic Buffalo Chicken Dip
Every Fourth of July, I make this classic Buffalo chicken dip, and it's always the first thing to disappear! My friends and family rave about it every single year.
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded chicken I used 1 rotisserie chicken, no skin or fat
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup Blue cheese or ranch dressing
- 1/2 cup Franks hot sauce
- 1 tbsp hidden valley ranch seasoning
- 1/4 cup fresh scallions
- 3 cups cheddar jack cheese divided
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
- Shred the chicken, making sure to remove any skin and bones.
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, scallions, cream cheese, 1 cup of cheddar jack cheese, hidden valley ranch seasoning, hot sauce, dressing, and mix well! Check for seasoning and add salt and pepper, if needed.
- Pour the mixture into a baking dish, then sprinkle the remaining cheddar jack and mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake for 15 minutes and then broil for 1-2 minutes or until golden brown.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips and enjoy!
Notes
- Mix everything together really well and check for seasoning before baking. Mine didn't need any extra salt or pepper since the chicken, hot sauce, dressing, and cheese are already packed with flavor, but feel free to season it to your liking.
- Broil for 1–2 minutes at the end. If you like a lightly golden top, a quick broil does the trick. Just keep an eye on it.
- Serve it warm with sturdy tortilla chips for best results!
