Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Buffalo wing sauce
- 1 cup Ranch dressing
- 1.5 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
- as needed Tortilla chips or veggies (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Stir in the shredded chicken, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, 3/4 cup of mozzarella cheese, and garlic powder. Mix until evenly combined.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe 9x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized dish. Spread it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese (1/2 cup) and mozzarella cheese (1/4 cup) evenly over the top of the mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, and the cheese on top is melted and slightly golden.
Carefully remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
If desired, garnish with sliced green onions for a pop of color and extra flavor.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies like celery and carrots. Enjoy!
