Ingredients
1 ½ pounds cooked chicken breasts, shredded (about 3 large breasts)
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
⅔ cup ranch dressing (refrigerated kind recommended for best flavor)
⅔ cup Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Sauce
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella; divided: 1 cup for mixing, ½ cup for topping)
Instructions
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C).
Mix Ingredients:
In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cream cheese, ranch dressing, buffalo sauce, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese. Stir until well mixed.
Assemble Dip:
Spread mixture evenly into a 1.5-quart baking dish. Sprinkle remaining ½ cup of cheese on top.
Bake:
Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the cheese is golden and the edges are bubbling.
Serve:
Serve hot with tortilla chips, carrot sticks, or celery.
Notes
Use refrigerated ranch dressing instead of shelf-stable for better flavor.
Swap cheddar for mozzarella or a blend of cheeses for a different taste.
Add blue cheese crumbles for a tangy twist.
Can also be made in a crockpot on low for 2–3 hours.
