Game Night Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Dip

My good friend Liz brought this dip over to our house about a year ago, and the second I tasted it, I was in love.  It’s the entire chicken wing experience (the spicy sauce, the blue cheese, and the chicken) combine into one dip and put on a chip.  Ah-mazing!  When I asked her for the recipe, she told me how easy it was, and said to email her for the instructions.  But of course, I forgot, and my husband and I were left to dream about that tasty dip that our friend brought to our party that one time…

I had almost forgotten about it until about 2 weeks ago, when Erajh and I settled down to watch some college football.  We instantly thought about that dip from a year ago.  Yes, that dip would have been just perfect to eat while we watching the game.  So last week I sent my friend a message and she sent me her ridiculously easy, ridiculously good Buffalo Chicken Dip recipe.  She also said I could share it here on my blog!You will need:

1 package cream cheese (8 oz)
3/4 a cup Blue Cheese dressing
1 packages ready-made plain grilled chicken strips (22 oz size, found in the meat coolers)
1/3 cup Buffalo Sauce

Step 1 – Cut the chicken strips into small cubes.  Or you can tear it, if you prefer.

Step 2 – Warm the cream cheese in the microwave for 30-60 seconds (this will make it easier to stir).

Step 3 – Add the blue cheese dressing to the softened cream cheese and stir.

Step 4 – Stir in the buffalo sauce and then once it’s well blended, add the cut up chicken strips

Step 5 – Put dip in the microwave on high heat for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

And there you have it – the easiest, yummiest (not a word, but if it were, it totally applies here) dip you could ever bring to a party…or eat at home by yourself.  The only thing I would do next time is to decrease the amount of chicken that I used.  One bag was a bit much, so I think I’ll decrease it to 1/2 a bag next time.  I suppose it just a matter of personal preference.  I should also say that ordinarily I don’t like Blue Cheese or Blue Cheese dressing at all, but in this dip it’s irresistible!  Enjoy!
