What is Buffalo Chicken Dip Made of?
Buffalo Chicken Dip is made with just a few simple ingredients:
Shredded Chicken – Usually I just boil and shred chicken breasts. However, if you are short on time, you can pick up a rotisserie chicken and shred that. Franks Hot Sauce – I am super picky about my hot sauce and Franks Hot Sauce is the only brand I like in this recipe. However, I have seen people use buffalo wing sauce to get more of that buffalo flavor.Ranch or Blue Cheese Dressing – This really comes down to preference. Both are delicious! Cream Cheese – This gives your buffalo chicken dip that creamy, irresistible texture and flavor.Shredded Cheddar Cheese and Blue Cheese Crumbles – You really can’t go wrong with melted cheese over the top!
What is Good to Dip in Buffalo Chicken Dip?
My favorite is to dip celery sticks in it (as seen above). It makes me feel like I am eating something somewhat healthy. Howver, the dip works great with all kinds of veggies – peppers, carrots, cucumbers, etc. Additionally, you can use any of the chips you know are going to be part of your Game Day spread. It also goes great on pretzels, toasted baguette, or crackers. It is pretty thick so make sure your dipper is sturdy, or that you have a spoon to scoop out anything that gets left behind!
Tips for Shredding the Chicken
When making Buffalo Chicken Dip, you want your chicken shredded as finely as possible. If the chicken pieces are too big then you won’t be able to scoop the dip up very easily. You can use the classic two forks method to shred the chicken. However, you may need to go back through with a knife and cut down larger pieces. The best way I have found to finely shred chicken is to use my Kitchen Aid. First, I throw the chicken in there with the Franks Hot Sauce. Then I mix it with the wire whisk attachment on medium speed. Finally, I scoop it from the mixing bowl right into the baking dish.
