Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound chicken breasts (cooked and shredded)
  • 8 ounce cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce (Frank’s Red Hots recommended)
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (divided)
  • 2 Tablespoons blue cheese dressing (or ranch dressing, for garnish)

For Serving

  • Fritos scoops
  • Baguette slices
  • Carrot sticks
  • Celery sticks

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, sour cream, buffalo sauce, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese using a large spatula until fully combined and smooth.
  2. Prepare for Baking: Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of a 1.5-quart baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the mixture.
  3. Bake the Dip: Place the baking dish uncovered in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese on top is completely melted, bubbly, and slightly golden around the edges.
  4. Garnish and Serve: Remove the dip from the oven and immediately drizzle 2 tablespoons of blue cheese or ranch dressing over the top. Serve hot with Fritos scoops, baguette slices, and fresh carrot and celery sticks for dipping and enjoying.

Notes

  • You can substitute the buffalo sauce with your preferred hot sauce or wing sauce to adjust spiciness.
  • Use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • For a thicker dip, drain any excess liquid from the shredded chicken before combining.
  • This dip can be prepared in advance and baked just before serving.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the microwave or oven.
