The dish comes together almost effortlessly, which is just what you want in a recipe that’s made for entertaining. Serve yours with tortilla chips, carrots, celery sticks or crostini.
Buffalo Chicken Dip
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken

- 1 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup blue cheese dressing

- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup chopped bacon
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
Directions
- Season chicken with salt and pepper and roast in a 350 degree oven until chicken is cooked through. Once chicken is cool enough to handle pick all of the meat from the chicken and rough chop it. Chef tip: you can reserve the chicken bones to make stock for another use.

- Place mixture into a shallow casserole dish and top with remaining cheddar and crumbled blue cheese.
