Buffalo Chicken Dip

This was a HUGE hit at my place last year on Superbowl Sunday... everyone has been asking me how to whip up a batch of my spectacular Buffalo Chicken Dip... it's mouth-watering and BONELESS... so here it is...Davey's Award-Winning Superbowl Buffalo Chicken Dip.

Prep time: 5 min
Cook Time: 44 min

Ingredients
1 1/4 pounds of fresh chicken breast, cooked then shredded*
2 (8 oz) packages of low-fat cream cheese, softened
1 cup of "name brand" Ranch dressing - NOT The cheap stuff!
3/4 cup Frank's Red Hot pepper sauce
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Sprinkle to taste with Celery Salt
1 1/2 cups shredded extra sharp cheddar cheese

Accessories may include:
  • 1 bunch celery, cleaned and cut into 4 inch pieces
  • warm sourdough bread
  • assortment of various crackers, tortilla chips etc.

Heat your chicken thouroughly in a skillet over medium heat, with the hot sauce.
Stir in the cream cheese and ranch dressing.
Cook, stirring until well blended and warm.
Mix in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and transfer the mixture to a slow cooker (or a pot on "low").
Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top, cover and continue cooking on low until hot and bubbly.

At your discretion, add chopped scallions as topping!

Your guests will love my buffalo chicken dip and it will be lots less messy than serving buffalo wings themselves!

* I save the white meat from making Chicken Soup and use that! Store-bought rotisserie chicken is another option!
