With the big game just moments around the corner, no doubt you are looking for an appetizer or dip recipes that will keep the chips coming. The great thing about making an easy buffalo chicken dip is that you can add nearly any type of veggie, chip, or cracker and the dip itself does the heavy lifting.
And by heavy lifting, I mean lifting the cracker to your mouth! I wanted to share with you a great way to not only get this creamy, delicious and perfectly spiced buffalo dip on the counter in under 30 minutes, but include all the ooey gooey cheese, perfect spice of the buffalo sauce, and the cooling effect of ranch dressing for a low cost.
This extra cheesy buffalo dip can be done the quick way (which I do!), or the long way for a more home cooked feel, or even a big ole buffalo dip slow cooker version!
Depending on your time and audience, the recipe choice is up to you.
Now let’s get started!
Buffalo Chicken Dip
This Buffalo Chicken Dip is the perfect blend of spice that will keep your mouth just hot enough that you can’t. quit. eating.
First, let’s discuss the chicken.
Here are three ways to prep the chicken prior to making the recipe. In my home, I use the “quick way” personally but you have choices!
- Quick way: Canned Chicken in Water
(as seen below) – I prefer to make dips quickly and they taste just as good. Grab 5-6 cans for this recipe (drain water) and use the chicken. This also keeps the cost down and allows you to make more
- Long Way: Pre-boil your chicken breast and shred. This takes approximately 20-30 extra minutes depending on the type of chicken you are boiling
- Slow Cooker
– crockpot buffalo chicken dip is convenient but make sure you start your dip way early if it’s uncooked. You can also do a partial slow cooker method by adding your canned chicken in your slow cooker and using the slow cooker to warm up your buffalo dip
