Buffalo Chicken Dip

August 2, 2023 by Gina +

The perfect savory dish. A cheesy buffalo chicken dip that can be served hot, cold, or as a filling for a wrap that is easy to make, delicious, and healthy. It’s one that’s on repeat in our house.

I really love this dish. I call it a dip when I make it for an appetizer and serve it with crackers, but it’s also a great filling for a wrap or quesadilla. And it’s so easy and healthy. It is protein-packed, filled with shredded chicken, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, and a little shredded cheese. I bake it and serve it warm, but it’s also quite tasty cold, on its own, dipped, and stuffed into a tortilla. It’s an easy thing to make ahead because the leftovers are delicious.

Ingredients needed for the Buffalo Chicken Dip

  • Shredded chicken – I use rotisserie to make it easier
  • Buffalo sauce – this is my absolute favorite
  • Greek yogurt
  • Cottage cheese – my favorite brand
  • Shredded cheese
  • Garlic powder, salt, and pepper

How to make the Buffalo Dip

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the yogurt, cottage cheese, cheddar, garlic powder, buffalo sauce, salt, and pepper to taste. 
  • Stir in the chicken. 
  • Spoon into an 8×8 baking dish.  Top with more cheese. 
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Serve with crackers or bread. Or add to a wrap or quesadilla. Leftovers can be warmed or served cold.

Why we love this recipe…

  • Flavor explosion. Buffalo sauce and cheese, what more can we ask for?
  • High protein. As a girly who always needs more protein, I appreciate a dish like this that is packed with protein.
  • Simple ingredients. Just a handful of ingredients makes this dish easy to whip up.

Tips & FAQ for the Blondies

What’s the best baking dish?

I prefer glass 8×8 for baking.

What’s the best way to store these?

Sealed in the fridge for up to 5 days. Serve warm or cold

Any substitutions?

Use whatever buffalo sauce you want. You can use more greek yogurt if you don’t add cottage cheese. You can also use Monterey jack or a cheddar blend if you don’t use straight cheddar.

Best way to serve this dish?

If it’s an appetizer, serve with crackers or toast. It’s also great as a filling for a wrap or, sandwhich, or quesadilla. I even like this cold.

These Sweet & Savory Korean BBQ Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are made right in my 10-quart Autuku slow cooker, which means plenty of room to feed a crowd without spending all day in the kitchen.
The simple WARM/LOW/HIGH settings make it easy to set it and forget it, and the PFOA-free ceramic pot is removable, so you can bring it right to the table when it’s time to serve.
Pile the saucy pulled chicken onto toasted brioche buns with creamy sesame pickle slaw and extra pickles. Save this one for your next summer gathering!
