How Do You Make Buffalo Ranch Chicken Dip?
For this buffalo ranch chicken dip, in a medium bowl mix together cooked, shredded chicken, cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, dry ranch mix and sour cream.

Tips For The Perfect Buffalo Ranch Chicken Dip
I think the chicken breast meat works best for this dip because it is easier to shred; however, you can other chicken meat. In a pinch, if you don’t have any other chicken you can use canned chicken meat. It’s important that your cream cheese is softened so that all the ingredients blend together nicely. You can use a skillet, pie plate or similar oven safe baking dish to bake your dip. Serve with baguette slices, chips, crackers, pretzel chips, celery sticks, breadsticks and veggies. You can buy pre-made toasted baguette slices, also known as crostini, in your grocery store’s bakery or deli departments.
Flavor Variations
This buffalo ranch chicken dip is savory and delicious as-is; however, you can adjust the flavors to your taste.
Cheese: I like to use cheddar cheese, but Monterey Jack cheese, Colby Jack cheese or mozzarella cheese would also work nicely. Spicier: For a spicier version of this dip, use some hot buffalo wing sauce or add a little hot sauce. Blue Cheese Sauce: Buffalo sauce goes great with blue cheese dressing. Make a little blue cheese dressing to serve on the side and cool your mouth.
This dip has all the great flavors of buffalo chicken wings in an easier to eat form. It is always on our table for parties, and I hope your family loves it too!
