Equipment
- 1 Baking Dish 9x13 inches
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
- 1 Spatula
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. This ensures an even cooking temperature for your dip.
- Remove the skin and bones from the rotisserie chicken. Shred the meat into small, bite-sized pieces using two forks.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, and garlic powder. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly blended.
- Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking, then pour the chicken mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the dip mixture in the baking dish.
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let the dip cool for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps the flavors meld together.
- Serve the dip hot with your choice of dippers, like tortilla chips, celery, or carrots.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
