Buffalo Ranch Chicken Dip
Description
This dip combines familiar ingredients—shredded cooked chicken, cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch powder, and sour cream—to create a creamy, mildly spicy, and tangy appetizer. Mixing the ingredients thoroughly before spreading in a baking dish ensures even flavor distribution. Baking melts the cheddar on top into a golden layer, adding texture and extra richness.
The dip is finished with sliced green onions, which provide a fresh contrast to the creamy base. It is commonly served warm with an assortment of dippers such as baguette slices, various chips, pretzels, or fresh vegetables, making it suitable for casual gatherings or snack times.
Using softened cream cheese is key to blending the ingredients smoothly. Rotisserie or other cooked chicken works well for convenience.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chicken shredded, cooked
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce such as Frank’s®

Notes
- Use any cooked chicken you prefer; rotisserie chicken is a quick, convenient option.
