Featuring shredded chicken blended with cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, cheddar cheese, and green onions, this dip is perfect for game days, gatherings, or any casual get-together.

Ingredients

Scale

Buffalo Chicken Dip Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped


Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a slow cooker, add the shredded cooked chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, and ranch dressing. Use a spoon or spatula to mix all ingredients thoroughly until evenly incorporated.
  2. Cook on Low: Cover the slow cooker and cook the mixture on the low setting for 2 hours. Stir the dip occasionally to ensure even cooking and to prevent sticking to the sides.
  3. Add Cheese and Green Onions: After 2 hours, add the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onions to the slow cooker. Stir well to combine these fresh ingredients evenly into the hot dip.
  4. Finish Cooking: Continue cooking the dip on low for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt fully and the flavors to meld into a smooth, creamy consistency.
  5. Serve Warm: Once the cheese is melted and the dip is heated through, turn off the slow cooker and serve the warm Buffalo Chicken Dip with your favorite chips, veggie sticks, or crackers.

Notes

  • Use cooked rotisserie chicken or leftover cooked chicken for convenience.
  • Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce according to your preferred spice level.
  • For a thicker dip, use full-fat cream cheese and cheddar cheese.
  • You can substitute ranch dressing with blue cheese dressing for a different flavor.
  • This dip can be kept warm in the slow cooker on the ‘warm’ setting for up to 1 hour after cooking.
