    This is the best buffalo chicken dip, hands down! It has the perfect level of spice and the creamy cheesy texture is "out of this world" amazing. You can make it on the stovetop or in the oven. Both methods work equally, so do whatever is easiest for you. Either way, it is perfect as an appetizer and always a hit at game day parties. If you are fond of this flavor, you really need to try my one pot buffalo chicken pasta recipe as well.

    Key ingredients

    • Cream cheese- You will need an entire 8 oz package.
    • Ranch dressing- Brings in a lot of flavor.
    • Sour cream- Brings on a nice creamy consistency.
    • Buffalo wings sauce- This is what gives it the classic, recognizable flavor.
    • Hot sauce- Gives it an extra kick.
    • Shredded chicken- Make it easy with a store bought rotisserie chicken.
    • Blue cheese- Use as little or as much as you like.
    • Cheddar cheese- Use shredded.
    • Mozzarella cheese- Used for a topping.
    • Garnish- Jalepenos that are finely chopped make a great topping.

    Variations

    • Add canned chicken- Use 3-4 cans of canned chickens, but be sure to drain the water first.
    • Substitute blue cheese- Blue cheese is strong and if you are not fond of it, you can replace it with another cheese of your choice.
    • Use real shredded Chicken- Either use homemade chicken breasts that has been shredded or use a store-bought rotisserie chicken and shred that.
    • Skinny dip- Use low fat cheeses and sauces.
    • Turn up the heat- To make it even more spicy, add more hot sauce or even red chili flakes.
    • Frank's version- Use Frank's red hot Buffalo wings sauce in this dip. It's the best.

    How to make easy one pot buffalo chicken dip recipe?

    1. Mix together- Cream cheese, ranch dressing, sour cream, buffalo wings sauce, hot sauce, shredded chicken, blue cheese, and cheddar cheese in a large oven-safe dish.
    2. Top off- With mozzarella cheese.
    3. Bake- And enjoy.

    What to serve with buffalo style dip?

    You want to serve this with tortilla chips, crackers, or cut up vegetables, such as celery. You can even add it as a sauce to sandwiches like these Ham and Cheese Sliders (One Pan) or a Tavern Sandwich. Because it is typically served as a side, a more main dish, such as the Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich can go alongside it.

    Tips and techniques

    • Use full fat cheeses- For maximum creaminess and flavor.
    • Use shredded rotisserie chicken- To really speed up the process.
    • Use canned chicken- But be sure to drain the water first.
    • Use your favorite combinations of cheeses- In this recipe, based on your preference.
    • Don't omit ranch- Because it adds a tangy flavor and creamy texture that this dip really needs!
    • You can cook the chicken breasts in the pressure cooker first- And then shred it and mix the remaining ingredients together (cheeses and sauces).
