Ingredients 

  • 2 cups chopped chicken breast
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • Extra chopped green onion, for sprinkling

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl combine all of the ingredients, but save 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese for sprinkling. Mix thoroughly.
  • Transfer the mixture to a baking dish (an 8×8-inch or similar-sized dish works well), spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining shredded cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 25–30 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
  • Serve the dip with extra chopped green onions on top and tortilla chips, celery sticks, or carrot sticks on the side for dipping.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken to save time and boost flavor.
  • Swap in cheddar or a Mexican blend cheese if you don’t have Monterey Jack.
  • Want it spicier? Add a dash of cayenne or extra buffalo sauce.
  • This dip can be made ahead and reheated—just cover with foil and warm in the oven.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in the microwave or oven.
