Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip
Serve with crackers, pita chips, nacho chips, celery sticks, or on its own. It's that yummy!**PARTY TIP*** Take it in a small crock pot so it stays warm. :)
Servings: 1 9x13 baking dish
Ingredients
- 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded (If you don't have a local source, get safe, pastured chicken online here.)
- 3/4 cup celery chopped
- 1/2 onion chopped
- 3 Tablespoons pastured butter or ghee
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup ranch dressing Try my homemade ranch dressing – it's easy!
- 1/2 cup or more of your favorite hot sauce taste-test before adding all of it to make sure it's not too spicy for you. Some use Franks, but I love a Sriracha sauce I found that has a pretty good ingredient label.
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
- optional: bacon chopped into small pieces!
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350*.
- Sauté onion and celery in butter ‘til they’re a little softer but still crunchy.
- Mix cream cheese, ranch dressing, and hot sauce together until creamy -- I use a hand-held blender.
- Then stir everything together, pour into a 9×13 glass baking dish and top with cheese.
- Bake until hot, about 20-30 minutes.
- Serve with seed-oil-free tortilla chips, celery sticks, crackers, or sourdough bread. I also like it plain!
