  • Total Time: 2 hours 5 minutes
  • Yield: 10 servings

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 12.5 oz can chunk chicken breast, drained (Swanson brand recommended)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 4 oz finely shredded Colby Jack cheese
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Wing Sauce (Sweet Baby Ray's or Franks Wing Sauce recommended)
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing

Dippers

  • Tortilla chips
  • Carrots
  • Celery

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the drained chunk chicken, softened cream cheese, shredded Colby Jack cheese, Buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing into a 3-quart or 6-quart crock pot bowl.
  2. Mix Thoroughly: Stir all ingredients together until fully combined and evenly distributed.
  3. Cook the Dip: Place the crock pot on the base and set it to LOW heat. Cook for 1½ to 2 hours, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating. If using a 6-quart crock pot, the dip should be hot and ready in about 1½ hours.
  4. Serve: Once thoroughly heated and bubbly, serve the dip hot with tortilla chips, carrot sticks, and celery as dippers.

Notes

  • Make ahead: Combine all ingredients in the crock pot insert and refrigerate for up to 2 days. When ready to serve, place on the crock pot base and cook on low for 30 minutes or until heated through.
  • For extra spice, add more Buffalo wing sauce to taste.
  • Use a smaller crock pot (3-quart) for a thicker consistency; larger pots may result in a thinner dip.
  • Shredded rotisserie chicken can be used instead of canned chunk chicken for a fresher texture.
