Buffalo Chicken Dip
Author: Nicole
Ingredients
  • 8 ounces of cream cheese, softened
  • 1 to 1.5 pounds of chicken breasts (3-4 breasts)
  • Hot Sauce (see Note)
  • 12 ounces Chunky Blue Cheese dressing
  • Tortilla chips
  • Celery
Instructions
  1. Poach, bake or grill chicken until done (about 25-30 minutes), when cool, coarsely shred chicken.
  2. Mix chicken with the hot sauce, to taste.
  3. Spread softened cream cheese onto bottom of an oven-proof dish (such as a pie plate or square dish). Spread chicken and hot sauce mixture over cream cheese. Pour and spread blue cheese dressing over top (you may not need the entire jar/bottle).
  4. Bake at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes or until bubbly and slightly browned on top.
Notes
* You can prepare it the night before and refrigerate it until you’re ready to cook it – add 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.
* Light cream cheese works well.
* Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce (regular heat, not “hot”). If you can’t find the “Buffalo Wing” version, use Frank’s Red Hot Sauce which was used in the original Buffalo Wing recipe. Some people have told me that their dip doesn’t turn out as well as when I’ve made it – the best that we can tell is that they used a different hot sauce, so try to find the Frank’s Red Hot Buffalo Wing Sauce.
* Marie’s Premium Super Blue Cheese (25% more blue cheese) – found in the refrigerator section. I use about 10 ounces of the 12 ounce jar.
* Best served with Tostito’s Scoops tortilla chips (needs a hearty chip).
* For a larger quantity, I use a 9”x13” pan with 4-5 large chicken breasts (about 2 to 2.5 pounds), 16 ounces of cream cheese and all the blue cheese dressing.
