Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie or leftover; about 10–12 oz)
- 1 cup cottage cheese (small curd; Greek yogurt is a substitute)
- 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (sharp cheddar for flavor)
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Dippers: tortilla chips, celery sticks, carrot sticks, sliced baguette, or crackers
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (an 8×8-inch or similar works well).
- Combine the shredded chicken, cottage cheese, buffalo wing sauce, cheddar, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
- Mix until well combined and relatively smooth. A hand mixer on low for 10–15 seconds can help achieve an extra-smooth texture.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges. Optionally, switch to broil for 1–2 minutes to brown the top.
- Remove from the oven and let rest for 3–5 minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dippers.
Notes
For a smoother base, pulse the cottage cheese in a blender before mixing. For a stronger tang, swap part of the cheddar for blue cheese crumbles.
