buffalo chicken dip

Buffalo Chicken Dip is a classic American favorite dip. It’s full of cheesy goodness. It’s always a party favorite that people chow down on. You can use crackers, a sliced baguette, or celery for dipping. Most things taste good when smothered with spicy cheese. I prefer using Frank’s Red Hot for the hot wing sauce. I find that it has the best flavor.

 

My Other Recipes

Don’t like bleu cheese? I get it. Bleu cheese is a flavor you either love or hate. You can substitute ranch dressing in place of the bleu cheese dressing in this recipe. Then use crumbled feta on top in place of the crumbled bleu cheese.

How do you cook chicken for buffalo chicken dip?

BOILING: One of the easiest ways to cook chicken for buffalo chicken dip is to boil the chicken in seasoned water or chicken broth. Bring a medium-sized saucepan of water to a boil and season with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper OR use chicken broth. Place 2 to 3 chicken breasts into the boiling water. Bring the water back to a simmer, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes until chicken is no longer pink inside and is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

PRE-COOKED: You can also use cooked rotisserie chicken from your grocery store. Many large chains also offer pre-cooked and chopped chicken.

BAKING: Another option is to bake your chicken. Place chicken breasts into a lightly greased 9×13 pan. Season with salt and pepper. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.

    I made this for my work pot-“cluck” tonight (chicken recipes only, haha)!

    I accidentally left my cheese on the oven as it preheated and ended up using what was NOT melted and a little old cheddar, unfortunately. But it’s still amazing! Just the right amount of spicy and bitter.

    Hopefully it goes well at work! Thanks for the recipe.

    Could I use this exact recipe, but add pasta to it? Would it be moist enough? I’ve been searching for a buffalo chicken casserole recipe with these exact ingredients.

      It’d be a crazy rich and decadent pasta.

    I’m also from Buffalo, and can confirm blue cheese is mandatory for an authentic wing dip. I appreciate that this recipe sticks to tradition, while.offering options for those who don’t like blue cheese. Looks delish! I’ll be making this (with rotisserie chicken) for the playoffs today.

      That’s weird. I do. I’m not sure why you would think that I don’t. Ooooooh, maybe you meant to say that you don’t personally use that in your recipe. That’s fine.

        EXACTLY TIM! I AM from Buffalo,N.Y. , Born and raised! No self- respecting buffalonian would have it any other way. Besides, although not everyone likes bleu cheese , it IS a part of the ORIGINAL way to serve and eat chicken wings. #ANCHOR BAR CHICKEN WINGS #ORIGINAL HOUSE OF CHICKEN WINGS

      I can see maybe not using ranch, but blue cheese? I mean that’s original. If your not going to use blue cheese (or sub ranch for those that don’t like blue cheese) what in tarnashins are you going to use? Would love to see your recipe I’m intrigued as to how you think this should be made.?

      I too am from NY and this recipe is da bomb.
