Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 8 oz block cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo-style hot sauce
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped celery
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, ranch dressing, Buffalo sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix until smooth.
  3. Gently fold in the shredded chicken, 1 cup of cheddar cheese, blue cheese (if using), chopped celery, and most of the green onions (reserve some for garnish).
  4. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch oven-safe dish and spread evenly.
  5. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until hot, bubbly, and golden on top.
  7. Let rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with reserved green onions. Serve warm.

Notes

For a lump-free base, ensure cream cheese is fully softened. Gently fold ingredients to maintain texture. Dip can be assembled a day ahead and refrigerated before baking. For a lighter version, use Neufchâtel cheese and low-fat Greek yogurt.
