Description
This Buffalo Chicken Dip without Ranch (Keto) is so easy to make and only needs four ingredients: shredded chicken, cream cheese, hot sauce and butter.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked finely shredded chicken
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup franks hot sauce
- 2 tablespoons salted butter
Instructions
- In a small saucepan on medium heat, add the butter and wait for it to melt.
- Add the hot sauce and cream cheese and keep stirring, until the cream cheese melts, about 5-8 minutes.
- Toss in the shredded chicken and cook until thickened.
Notes
- Use shredded chicken: Shredded chicken works best in this recipe, as it blends well with the other ingredients and makes for a creamy, smooth dip. You can use cooked and shredded chicken breasts, or use leftover rotisserie chicken.
- Use hot sauce to taste: Depending on your personal preference, you can adjust the amount of hot sauce you use to make the dip as spicy or mild as you like.
- Let the cream cheese soften: Softening the cream cheese at room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients will make it easier to blend and ensure a smoother texture.
- Use freshly grated cheese: Freshly grated cheese melts more easily and blends better with the other ingredients than pre-shredded cheese.
- Double the recipe for a crowd: This recipe can easily be doubled to serve a larger crowd. Just make sure to use a larger baking dish or divide the dip between two smaller dishes.
- Garnish with green onions: Garnishing the dip with chopped green onions adds a fresh and flavorful touch.
- Serve with a variety of dippers: Buffalo Chicken Dip goes well with a variety of dippers, such as tortilla chips, celery sticks, carrot sticks, and sliced baguette.
