Jump to RecipeHow to make Instant Pot Buffalo Chicken Dip:
- First cook the chicken in theInstant Pot:
- Addbuffalo sauce (recipe here)and ranch dressing to the instant pot. Add chicken.
- 关闭即时锅，将压力阀置于密封位置。锅设置为手动/高压，定时器设置为10分钟。
- 这需要一些时间来积累压力，然后时间就会开始倒计时。
- After the time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes (do not flip the valve). After 5 minutes, release the remaining pressure by flipping the valve.Careful as steam will come out of the top of the pot.
- Using 2 forks shred the chicken by pulling it apart. You can also use ahand mixer用低速撕碎鸡肉。
- Add cream cheese and shredded cheese to the Instant Pot. Mix until melted and completely combined.
- Once everything is combined you have two options:
- Serve as is, or transfer to a baking dish and broil to get the top crispy! I like to broil it for a few minutes to have a nice crispy cheese layer on top!
- Garnish the top with chopped green onions for some extra crunch!
What to serve with the Dip:
- Air Fryer Bagel Chips (with oven directions)
- Serve with sliced baguette pieces
- Serve with tortilla chips
- Serve with warm flour tortillas
- Serve with carrot and celery sticks
Can I make Buffalo Chicken Dip in the Slow Cooker?
Yes!
- Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker. Set on high for 5 hours or low for 8 hours.
- Shred the chicken when the time is up and then stir to combine everything.
- Add a layer of cheese on top, then close the lid and leave for about 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted! Serve!
How to make Healthier Buffalo Chicken Dip:
Buffalo chicken dip is really not a health food, but there are a few ways to save some calories and fat grams!
- Instead of using full fat cream cheese, use ⅓ less fat cream cheese. This saves calories and fat.
- Reduce the shredded cheese by 25%. I don't recommend using low fat cheese because this will not melt well in your dip.
- Serve with healthier options like low carb tortillas, celery sticks, and carrot sticks. Sliced cucumbers and peppers would also be a great way to serve the buffalo chicken dip.
While still not 'healthy', this will definitely lighten up the dip.
