Description

Inspired by Buffalo chicken dip, this version of the spicy party favorite uses chile-garlic sauce to bring the heat and blue cheese dressing and ranch dressing mix for extra flavor.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon olive oil

• 1/4 sweet onion, cut into small dice

• 1 stalk celery, cut into small dice

• 1 (5 ounce) can chicken chunks, shredded

• 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic

• 1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt

• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese

• 1/4 cup chicken broth

• 1/4 (1 pound) package processed cheese food (such as Velveeta®), cut into cubes

• 2 tablespoons blue cheese salad dressing

• 1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®), or more to taste

• 1/2 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix

• 4 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions

1 Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir sweet onion and celery in hot oil until translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add chicken, granulated garlic, and seasoned salt; continue cooking until chicken is warmed, about 3 minutes.

2 Stir cream cheese, chicken broth, and processed cheese food into the chicken mixture. Reduce heat to low, place a cover on the saucepan, and cook until the cheeses are melted, about 5 minutes.

3 Stir blue cheese salad dressing, chile-garlic sauce, and ranch dressing mix into the cheese mixture; cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle mozzarella cheese over the mixture; cook until melted, 1 to 2 minutes more.
