Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2 (10 oz) cans cooked chicken breast drained and shredded
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese softened
  • 3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions sliced (for garnish, optional)
  • Blue cheese crumbles (for garnish, optional)

Equipment

  • 3-quart or larger slow cooker

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Chicken: If using canned chicken, ensure it's well drained and shredded. If using cooked chicken breast, shred it into bite-sized pieces.
    2 (10 oz) cans cooked chicken breast
  2. Combine Ingredients in Slow Cooker: In a 3-quart or larger slow cooker, add the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese (cut into cubes for easier melting), buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing.
    2 (10 oz) cans cooked chicken breast, 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, 3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce, 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  3. Stir to Combine: Stir all the ingredients together until they are well mixed. It’s okay if the cream cheese isn't fully incorporated yet; it will melt as it heats.
  4. Add Cheeses: Sprinkle in half of the shredded cheddar cheese and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese. Gently stir these in, leaving some for the top.
    1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  5. Cook on Low: Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the dip is hot, bubbly, and the cheeses are completely melted and smooth. Stir occasionally during the cooking process to ensure even melting and prevent sticking.
  6. Stir and Serve: Once heated through, stir the dip thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined and the dip is consistently creamy.
  7. Final Cheese Topping (Optional): If desired, sprinkle the remaining cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top during the last 15-30 minutes of cooking, or just before serving, to create a melted, bubbly cheese crust.

  8. Garnish and Serve: Transfer the Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Dip to a serving dish, or serve directly from the slow cooker to keep it warm. Garnish with sliced green onions and blue cheese crumbles, if using. Serve hot with your favorite dippers!
