Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 1 cup Buffalo sauce
- 0.5 cup Ranch dressing
- 6 cups Fritos corn chips
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 whole Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 0.5 cup Crumbled blue cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked shredded chicken and buffalo sauce. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated.
Spread half of the Fritos corn chips evenly across the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Layer the buffalo chicken mixture over the corn chips, spreading it evenly.
Drizzle the ranch dressing over the top of the chicken layer.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese across the entire dish, ensuring even coverage.
Top with the remaining half of the Fritos corn chips, pressing them gently into the cheese to slightly embed them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
Garnish the pie with sliced green onions and optional crumbled blue cheese for added tanginess.
Spoon into bowls or plates and serve warm.
