🥘 Ingredients
Shredded Chicken: use rotisserie chicken or bake 2-3 chicken breasts in the oven at 350F for 20-40 minutes (coat with olive oil and season with salt before baking).
Frank's Red Hot: Franks is my go-to for anything hot wing related, but any cayenne pepper sauce will work.
Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt: make sure it is plain yogurt; you don't want to use vanilla flavored yogurt accidentally.
Sharp Cheddar Cheese: use sharp cheddar; you need a strong cheese flavor to compete with the other strong flavors
Ranch Seasoning: adds a little ranch flavor; use 3 teaspoons of seasoning if you want it really ranchy
Corn Starch: will help to thicken up the dip
Garlic & Onion Powder: adds flavor
Green Onions: Optional for garnish
🔪 How to Make Buffalo Chicken Dip without Cream Cheese
1. Mix Dip: Mix together all the ingredients besides ½ cup of cheddar cheese and the green onions.
2. Top: Top with remaining cheese.
3. Bake: Bake for 25 mins.
4. Serve: Top with green onions and serve with chips or toasted slices of bread.
🧀 Variations
Make it with Blue Cheese: When you mix the dip together, leave out the ranch seasoning and mix in half a cup of blue cheese and only half a cup of cheddar cheese. Top the dip with half a cup of cheddar cheese and a few blue cheese crumbs.
Not a fan of Ranch: Leave out the ranch seasoning for a regular buffalo chicken dip

👩🍳Tips & Tricks
Don't forget the corn starch! Greek yogurt adds extra moisture to the dip. The corn starch absorbs that moisture and prevents the dip from getting watery.
