Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded (about 300 grams)
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened (225 grams)
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (100 grams)
  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (120 ml)
  • 1/3 cup blue cheese crumbles (50 grams)
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing (60 ml)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional garnish: chopped green onions or parsley

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. If not already shredded, shred about 2 cups (300 grams) of cooked chicken breast finely.
  3. In a medium mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces (225 grams) of softened cream cheese with an electric mixer or whisk until smooth and creamy. If cold, microwave for 15 seconds to soften.
  4. Add buffalo wing sauce, ranch dressing, garlic powder, and onion powder to the cream cheese. Mix well until combined and smooth.
  5. Fold in shredded chicken and shredded cheddar cheese gently to combine evenly.
  6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, keeping in mind the saltiness of the blue cheese.
  7. Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
  8. Sprinkle blue cheese crumbles evenly over the top (about 1/3 cup or 50 grams).
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until edges are bubbly and top is slightly golden.
  10. Let the dip cool for about 5 minutes before serving with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or sliced baguette.

Notes

Softening the cream cheese properly is key to avoid lumps. Use smaller shredded chicken pieces for better texture. Do not overbake to prevent drying out. If dip is watery, pat chicken dry or reduce buffalo sauce. Serve warm for best flavor. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 3 days and reheated gently.
