Ingredients
Buffalo Chicken Dip Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup plain full fat Greek yogurt, room temperature
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1/2 cup sliced green onions
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 3/4 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 1/2 cups cooked shredded chicken breasts
Instructions
- Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and spray a baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Base Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, sliced green onions, garlic powder, and onion powder until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add Chicken and Cheese: Stir in the cooked shredded chicken and half of the shredded cheese using a rubber spatula until evenly incorporated.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and evenly top with the remaining shredded cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until heated through and bubbly.
- Optional Broil for Crisp Top: For a crispy, golden cheese topping, switch your oven to broil for the last 3 minutes of baking, watching closely to prevent burning.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove from oven, top with extra sliced green onions, and serve warm with tortilla chips, carrot sticks, and celery sticks for dipping.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese and Greek yogurt are at room temperature for easier mixing and a smoother dip consistency.
- Use cooked shredded chicken breasts; rotisserie chicken works great for convenience.
- Adjust the amount of buffalo sauce based on your preferred spice level.
- Keep an eye on the dip while broiling to avoid burning the cheese topping.
- This dip can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving for convenience.
