  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/4 cup buffalo wing sauce (Frank's RedHot or your favorite)
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  2. Step 2: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and ranch dressing. Mix until smooth and creamy.
  3. Step 3: Stir in the shredded chicken, buffalo wing sauce, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
  4. Step 4: Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the chopped green onions evenly over the top.
  5. Step 5: Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly. The cheese should be melted and slightly browned.
  6. Step 6: Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with tortilla chips, celery sticks, or crackers.

Notes

  • Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For perfectly reheated dip, bake uncovered at 325°F for 10-15 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
  • Elevate your game day spread by serving the dip with a variety of dippers, including baguette slices and even potato chips for a fun twist.
  • To prevent a watery dip, ensure your chicken is completely dry before adding it to the cream cheese mixture, and avoid over-baking.
