Ingredients
  

  • 3 to 4 cups shredded chicken breasts roughly 3 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, see notes
  • 8 ounces dairy-free cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup dairy-free ranch dressing
  • ½ cup Franks RedHot Sauce original
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • green onions for topping optional

Instructions
 

  • Place the chicken breasts in a pot of boiling water and cover with a lid. Let it boil for about 30-35 minutes or until completely cooked.
  • Once finished, remove from the water and let it cool before handling.
  • In a sauce pan over medium-low heat, add some softened non-dairy cream cheese, the ranch and hot sauce. Mix well while working out the lumps of cream cheese (takes about 2-3 minutes to fully melt and combine).
  • Mix in the spices.
  • Shred the chicken and mix into the sauce.
  • Pour the contents into a lightly oiled 9x9 casserole dish and bake at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • If you like a meatier buffalo chicken dip, use about 4 cups of shredded chicken. If you like more of a creamier, and just a little less meaty buffalo chicken dip, use about 3 cups of chicken. 
  • I wouldn't bake this buffalo chicken dip for any longer than 15 minutes! The oils will start to separate and it will become greasy. A good range should be between 10 to 15 minutes in the oven.
