Ingredient Notes

Shredded Chicken – Use cooked, shredded chicken breasts or rotisserie chicken for a convenient shortcut.

Cream Cheese – Adds a rich and creamy texture to the dip. Ensure it’s softened for easy blending.

Hot Sauce – I LOVE using Franks for anything “buffalo” related. But a favorite hot sauce will do. The quantity can always be adjusted based on your spice preference.

Ranch Dressing – Provides a cool and tangy counterbalance to the heat of the buffalo sauce.

Cheese – Shredded cheddar cheese creates the perfect gooey, cheesy goodness in this dip. I always recommend shredding your own so it melts better.

Pearls Specialties Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives – Premium Blue Cheese Stuffed Olives add a creamy, piquant flavor and an extra meaty texture. Pearls Specialties Olives are my favorite way to elevate any game day appetizer with quality ingredients. There’s a reason why it’s America’s favorite olive.
