Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Dip
Guys. I’m about to introduce you to the best motherfuckin’ dip in the entire world. Yeah. It’s that good. I know no one gives a crap about recipe backstory, but just allow me to say this. I made this dip for a fantasy football draft party four years ago. When we decided to have another fantasy football draft party this year, THE FIRST thing I was asked is “Will you make that dip?” These people hadn’t had this delicious crack in four years, and they still asked for it. It’s. that. good. Also, this recipe is courtesy of friends who hail from Buffalo, so you know it’s legit. Alright. Let’s dive in.
Ingredients:
(2) 8 ounce packages of cream cheese (softened)
2 cups diced chicken (we marinated ours this time around, but we’ve also just used grocery store ready made rotisserie chicken in the past, and it all works)
1/2 cup ranch dressing
1 cup Frank’s Red Hot Wing Sauce
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (plus a little extra for sprinkling)
Mix everything together in a big bowl and then pour into a 9 x 13 pan (glass works best). I know you are looking at this and thinking I am a crazy person and there’s no way this is actually going to taste good. You’re wrong.
Sprinkle on a top layer of shredded cheese, then bake at 325 degrees for about a half an hour, or until the cheese on top is all bubbly. I like to serve this dip with Fritos, but really any chip that you prefer will suffice. The only bad thing about this dip is that it needs to be served hot. So if it sits out for a while (which it probably won’t because it will be eaten within minutes) you might need to pop it back in the oven for a quick reheat.
Honestly guys, you know I never lie to you, and this dip is one of my favorite things to make and eat. It’s super simple (takes maybe ten minutes to throw everything together) and everyone loves it. When it comes time for Super Bowl parties, this baby will be your superstar.
Let me know if you make the dip and how much everyone loves it when you do!
