This chicken wing dip tastes just like hot chicken wings, but without the mess. It is perfect for football and tailgating season. I take this whenever I have to bring a dish and am always asked for the recipe. Serve with tortilla chips.
Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- ¾ cup hot pepper sauce
- 2 cups diced cooked chicken
- 1 cup Ranch-style salad dressing
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix cream cheese and hot pepper sauce together in a medium bowl until well blended; stir in chicken, dressing, and Cheddar cheese. Spread into a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 30 minutes. If oil collects on the top, dab it off using a paper towel.

I make a similar version of this often for tailgating and it’s always a hit. I’m constantly giving out the recipe. I omit cheddar cheese, use only 1 package of cream cheese (for a meatier dip) and do not heat or bake (mix at room temp and and serve chilled). I also shred the chicken instead of cubing it and serve with celery sticks and chips for a little variety.
-
this was the best dip everone loved it.
-
Delicious! I only made a half batch, and I made it exactly according to the recipe, except I used a 5 oz. can of chicken because I didn’t have anythying else(grilled chicken would be even better). Also, I just served it cold(for the most part), because this recipe is similar to a cold version I tried some time ago, and that is what I was looking for. It has a great consistency, even straight out of the refrigerator. I will try it baked for a football party when I get a chance. By the way, there is another way to serve this, which turns out great. Just spread some on english muffin halves and bake at 400 for 8-10 minutes – they’re awesome! Thanks, ASCBRADY!
-
everyone just loved this dip! hearty & spicey
-
A friend made this for an office event and it was great. She sent me this recipe so I could share with others.
-
Another *all recipes* triumph! Had this on Christmas Eve and it won rave reviews! Very easy and is great hot OR cold!
Yum! -
I take this to work frequently for potlucks. Everyone loves it!
-
Make life easy! Buy a store ready, seasoned rotisserie chichen. I also add some chopped celery. Serve with a heaty cracker or bagel chips. A hit at every party or for a quick treat for co-workers.
-
This dish is quick and easy! I made it on the stove top combining all the ingrediants and added an additional cup of cheddar cheese until all was melted and mixed well. It turned out fantastic! Everyone enjoyed it very much!
-
This dip is wonderful. I took it to a New Year’s Eve party and there was none left to bring home. Will definitely make this again!
-
Excellent dip. I didn’t change a thing in the recipe. It is a favorite for watching the Bears game. Being from NY we don’t get alot of chances to watch them but I will be making it tomorrow for the playoffs against the Panthers! GO BEARS!!!
-
Made this New Years Eve. Liked the fact this recipe uses Ranch instead of blue cheese. The cream cheese was a bit much, though. I will definitely use this recipe again, but maybe cut down on the cream cheese.
-
i like using blue cheese w/ this recipe. Definitely a keeper, i’ve had it w/ friends about 6 football sundays in a row!
-
–insert slobbering homer sound here– Yum! Decadent! Easy! A keeper!
-
UNBELIEVABLE! That’s what my guests said- this was a HUGE hit! I also used a rotiserrie chicken (no skin) and put hunks of white and dark meat in the dip. I added colby jack cheese as well. When chips ran out people ate in on celery stalks and carrot sticks. Thank you so much- what a GREAT recipe!
-
Excellent Dip. Franks now has a bufflo wing sauce that I used instead of hot sauce. Huge success
-
I’ve been making a dip almost exactly like this for 2 years now and still get asked for the recipe! The only difference is that I add 1/2 cup chopped celery, yum! I also make it in the crock pot when necessary depending on what we are doing.
-
This was one of THE BEST recipes I’ve gotten from this site! I used no fat cream cheese; reduced fat Ranch dressing; and reduced fat cheddar cheese (to fit within my Weight Watchers program). I also chopped up celery and put that right in the mix with everything else. Also topped the entire dip with the remaining cheese. Unbelievably delicious!!!
-
I took this to a surprise birthday party for a friend and everyone loved it. It was super easy to make and everyone wanted to know why I didn’t bring more.
-
I guess I expected more from this dip! It was good but not worth 5 stars to me. I took the suggestion and added celery. Maybe next time I will use Blue Cheese dressing instead of Ranch.
-
I made this for the first time just the other day to take into work. (I used a crockpot instead of baking it in the oven) Within a half hour of setting it out, I had nurses actually paging me to get the recipe, and of course there were no leftovers to take home at all. Thanks for a wonderful, easy appetizer!
-
I don’t know what I did for dip before I found this recipe. It’s too perfect. I used bleu cheese dressing instead of ranch because you need bleu cheese with buffalo sauce! It tastes awesome cold too. I know this because I ate a ton of it before I even got it into the oven! Thanks for the recipe.
-
AWESOME DIP!!
-
This dip is delicious. I used blue cheese dressing instead of ranch and using Franks hot sauce is a must. If you like hot wings, you wiil like this dip
-
This dip was awesome! I used blue cheese instead of the ranch and Frank’s buffalo wing sauce instead of the regular flavor. I served it at a party and it was gone within 5 minutes!!! It’s also great on pizza!
-
I’ll give this 5 stars even though I didn’t try it. Everyone that I served it to loved it. Based on some of the other reviews, I used blue cheese dressing and I agree that Frank’s is a must.
-
Stupid good! Seriously, I was at a Euchre night tournament and was almost embarrassed how much of this dip I ate. The only changes I would suggest are blue cheese (for the original wing & sauce flavor) and Monterey Jack cheese.
-
This is my favorite dip!! I make it every time, I have friends over. Everyone loves it. I only have made 3 changes. I add a little extra hot sauce, cook up my own chicken breasts& also make it in my crock pot. Putting it in the crock pot is a must, I would say. This is so worth the calories!!!
-
Wasn’t really expecting much at first. But this dip knocked my socks off!!!! Amazing flavors 🙂 I didnt change anything, follow the recipe and you will be waaayyyyyy pleased with the results!! AWESOME DIP!!!
-
Excellent recipe, though I would call it “addictive,” not “addicting.”
-
This was REALLY good! I took it to a dinner last night and everyone loved it. I did use light blue cheese dressing instead of the ranch and I used Texas Pete’s buffalo wing sauce, because I couldn’t find Franks. It was very good and a definite keeper.
-
Loved this dip!! It was so easy and it tasted great. However, I did use blue cheese dressing instead of ranch. I will be making this dip again..
-
This was a great hit at my most recent party! I will definitely make again and again!
-
Soooooo good!!! It was a huge hit!! I did add another 1/4 cup of Franks for an extra kick though!!
-
Served this at my last euchre party and everyone there wanted the recipe!!
-
Definitely a great recipe. I mixed in everything except the cheddar before the 30 minute bake time. I topped it with the cheddar, and threw it back in for another 5-7 minutes. It was much less greasy this way.
-
This dip is great. I did change the ranch to blue cheese but think it would be great either way. If you like hot wings, this is certainly better, since there is no mess. I will be making this at all my get-to-togethers.
-
I made this for a graduation party. Everybody loved it with Doritos instead of plain tortilla chips. I will most likely add more chicken next time.
-
My guests enjoyed this dip very much, and filled up on it to the point where they could barely eat anything else. I didn’t eat so much of it. I found it to be a little salty and light on chicken. Next time I will add more chicken (shredded this time) and less cheddar cheese.
-
This recipe is really delicious. I made a couple changes. I boiled the chicken and shredded it. I also used blue cheese dressing instead of ranch. It tasted great!
-
This is sooo addicting! I used blue cheese dressing instead of the ranch, and used 4 breasts of chicken. I mixed in a half cup of the cheese during the melting step, baked for 25 min, sprinkled the rest of top, and baked 5 more minutes. Perfect with tostitos scoops to get all the chicken.
-
Made this for a party we attended last night. VERY intense flavor! I cooked and shredded a chicken breast and made my own ranch dressing. Served with a dollop of sour cream, sliced gr onion and had celery sticks to dip with. Some of us tried this with tortilla chips but made it VERY salty…we liked the celery better…next time I am going to try using blue cheese dressing and less cheddar, will cut back on the cream cheese and maybe stir in some sour cream. Was a crowd pleaser!
-
This is a delicious appetizer type dish. Because of the reviews with both types of dressings, I made one batch of each. They were both a big hit!Thanks!
-
It’s a hit! I love it, and so did all of my party guests. It’s quick and easy, which is good because that means it’s hard to mess up!! I served it with regular town house brand crackers, but I’ve heard that celery sticks and the chik’n’biscuit crackers are great too.
-
Best ever! I had a recipe similar to these and miss placed it, so I searched for a new one. The Ranch dresssing is key, it’s a wonderful dish
-
My dip tasted good, but the seperation was bad and no amount of dabbing would help. It made it look very unappetizing and some of my guests were put off. I used blue cheese and a rotisserie chicken and served with tortilla chips and celery.
-
Loved it!!! Wings are always a mess to serve when entertaining. Now we have the taste without the hassle. To save time, I use either one whole rotisseree chicken or 2 large cans white meat chicken in place ofthe chicken. I had no problem with the oil on top. I used Frank’s wing sauce, but I doubt that had anything to do with it. This is my new favorite recipe to impress with. Thanks!
-
Very easy to make, just the right amount of heat, not too spicy. They were begging for the recipe!!
-
This is an absolute wonderful wing dip!! I made this exactly as the recipe stated, with the exception of shredding the chicken in a chopper instead of cubing it. Next time I’ll dice the chicken. It’s nice to get those chunks of chicken; more like eating wings. The way mine was shredded, you couldn’t even tell it was in there. I will definitely use blue cheese with this as a change up/alternate. Thanks for this dip!!
-
I made this for a party and hit was the hit of the party. Everyone wanted the recipe. I used blue cheese dressing and served with celery sticks and tortilla chips and both were a big sucess
-
This is a great recipe, I did change one thing, I used blue cheese dressing.
-
I have made this dip several times and it is always a hit. I use bluecheese instead of ranch (have to be authentic), a little more chicken, and monterey jack cheese. This is always the first to go!
-
Fantastic dip!
-
I always love this recipe. I use blue cheese dressing instead of Ranch which gives it a little tangy bite mixed with that hot sauce. Thanks for the recipe!
-
This dip was great. Something different and every body loved it. The only change I made was to heat it in a small slow cooker instead of the oven.
-
I also used blue cheese instead of ranch. My friends loved this.
-
HOLY COW! This was so good! I am looking forward to making this for friends and family. I cut the fat out as much as I could except for the shredded cheese, everything else was ff. It was so yummy.
-
While I thought this tasted okay, I couldn’t get past the texture for some reason.
-
Comments at the party last night included: “this rocks”! Excellent recipe. I’ve made this countless times and now double the chicken….to save time, I use the meat from a whole roasted chicken. Yum, yum!
-
Very Good,Quick and Easy. I don’t especially like wings but thought this was just the right amount of each flavor. I followed some of the others advice and used rotissere chicken which worked out great.
-
So yummy! I am always asked for the recipe.
-
I made this for a casual cocktail party. It was a huge hit! Both men and women loved it. I did use my own cooked chicken breasts and half of the cheese. Great with Frito’s scoops! So much less mess than traditional hot wings.
-
This tasted really good, but mine turned out super greasy. I only used a handful of cheddar cheese, not a cup, which I mixed into the dip. I don’t know why it was so greasy, but if you are eating this dip, you are clearly not worried about calories & fat!
YUM :o) -
What can I say that hasn’t already been said. Awesome dip.
-
I’ve been making a version of this recipe for years and every time I make it, people rave. I’ve even catered with it. So easy. I always add about a cup of chopped up celery in the mixture…a nice crunch. I’ve used all fat free or low fat ingredients (including the shredded cheese) and never have trouble with consistency. I can’t get over the horrible texture of canned chicken, so I just roast chicken breasts in the oven with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Shred it and use it just like the canned. I start the mixture on the stove and then transfer to a crockpot for all day. Great to take to work, meetings, etc. I serve with celery sticks and tortilla chips. Coworkers grab a spoon and dig in! 🙂
-
This was excellent. I only used 8 ounces of cream cheese and used mainly low fat ingredients where I could. I did use ranch dressing this time but I can’t wait to try it with the bleu cheese. Oh, I also only used 1/2 cup of hot sauce, my husband doesn’t like really spicy food. Thanks for submitting a great appetizer.
-
Simply delicious. Definately a keeper. Everyone loved it!!
-
i make it for every party,it’s the first thing to go!
-
This was amazing! I made it when some people came over to watch football and everyone raved about it. I kept it warm in a mini crock pot which worked really well. Also served it with frito scoops which was perfect, had celery sticks too but they weren’t as good as the scoops.
-
This dip is sooo good, and not as messy as real wings. The guys LOVED it!
-
This is a winner! I have made this many times and it’s always a huge hit. I substitute blue cheese dressing for the ranch (it’s a NY thing) and instead of cooking it in the oven, I use a crock-pot to heat it through – that also helps it stays hot during parties. Another tip – using celery sticks to dip instead of tortilla chips makes this practically carb-free.
-
Made it last night for the first time for a get-together, and EVERYONE loved it!!! I think next time I will use a hand blender to combine the hot sauce and cream cheese, so that it looks a little more appetizing. Nonetheless, delicious if you enjoy chicken wings as much as my friends and I do!
-
This dip is fantastic! I made it for a pot-luck BBQ we had at work, and by the end of the day I had to print up 5 copies of the recipe for my coworkers. Like a lot of reviewers, I substituted Bleu Cheese dressing for the Ranch, plus I used the “Buffalo Wing” flavor of Frank’s Red Hot. One tip – make sure your cream cheese is room temp, and use a hand mixer to combine it and the hot sauce. It was a little diffcult to get everything to blend together by just stirring. Hand mixer solved that right away. My fiance suggested the next time I make this, I double or even triple the amount of chicken, shred it instead of chunks, and use it to make hot wing sandwiches. I can’t wait to try that!
-
This dip was excellent… we’ve made it several times now, and it’s always very popular. We found that tortilla chips were too salty, so we got a small loaf of french bread and cut it into slices small enough for dipping. Everyone loved it, and we are always looking for an excuse to make it again!
-
Definitely a hit at my party! I made it exactly according to the recipe and my guests really gobbled it up. I did use canned chicken and it was sooo easy.
-
Amazing!!! I am orignally from Buffalo and think this is a great recipe. One catch…substitute ranch for blue cheese. mmmmmmmmm
-
I had some leftover chicken breast and was looking for a recipe and glad that I came across this one. I did half the recipe and the whole family loved it.
-
Loved it!
-
This was one of the better recipes for Chicken Wing Dip that I’ve tried. I made this in the crockpot instead of the oven and it turned out great. Thanks for the recipe.
-
I made this according to the recipe for a football party today. It was LOVED by all. I’m getting ready to forward the recipe to the party goers. (Mine was not at all greasy) Thanks for sharing this great dip!
-
I make this all the time. I did change it, I have used rotisserie chicken, left out the dressing and didn’t bake it. I just soften the cream cheese in the microwave and stir in the rest of the ingredients. Mine is never greasy and I think it tastes better at room temperature.
-
Made this for pot-luck and everyone loved it. Bluecheese or Ranch dressing can be used.
-
Very addictive. Always get asked for the recipe. I use Bleu Cheese (personal preference) and reduced fat cream cheese and fresh cooked chicken (makes a world of difference on the taste. I have used fresh and canned both) Have made it 2 different times. I have one suggestion though, after baking, transfer it to a crock pot to keep warm; I learned this lesson after I made the first time and it cooled off so quick. I had to keep reheating in microwave and it doesnt taste good cold!
Great with celery, fritos scoops, chicken in a biscuit crackers or tortilla chips. -
This is totally what I wanted! When it is done cooking, it looks hotter than it actually is, so don’t be intimidated! We ate it with Scoops chips and it was GONE in less than 10 minutes. I have made it with fat-free cream cheese and cheddar-jack cheese (that’s all I had) and halved the recipe, and it was good too! What a easy winner!!!
-
I made this with homemade bleu cheese dressing and WOW – this was really good. (I had some left over Stilton cheese). I also took another reviewer’s suggestion of serving this dip with both celery sticks and Tostitos Scoops in order to give people a healthier choice. Like many have said before, it’s a great alternative to actual wings because it’s not messy. All the flavor, but no greasy fingers and bones to contend with!
-
Made this yesterday for a Halloween gathering…three people asked for the recipe, it’s a hit!
-
We didn’t care for this. I only made half of the recipe and I used canned chicken, maybe that is why? I thought it needed more “stuff” in it. It was too cream-cheesy or something. With all of the great reviews this must be good, I will have to try again and maybe use real chicken and add some other stuff?
-
I brought this to a singles party and it was a huge hit. It was very easy to assemble and used ordinary ingredients. I served it with tortilla chips. Also, I used light ingredients and it still tasted awesome. I will definitely add this to my list of favorites!
-
I tried this for a small party I had, and it was a hit. I cooked some chicken things and then shreeded them into the sauce , instead of the canned chicken. I also kept it warm in a crock pot and it held up well. Simple and good.
-
Delicious… I used BW3 hot sauce rather than ‘Franks’. This is a very rich dip so a little does go a long way. My husband enjoyed this and told me to put it in the rotation.
-
I picked up this recipe from a friend at our tailgate spot and made it with fat free ranch and low fat cream cheese to send with my boyfriend on a weekend RV football trip with his friends and it was a HUGE hit! The fat content with the original recipe was too high for us, but you don’t sacrifice the taste at all going low-fat or fat-free. I used rotisserie chicken that I purchased from Costco for the chicken because it was much easier than cooking it, just cut off the breast meat and chopped it up. Also served with Scoops. I think transferring it to a crock pot to keep it warm is a GREAT idea.
-
THIS IS GREAT…. I made it and took it to work and everyone loved it, I will be making this again and again.. Thanks for the great recipe…
-
I liked this, will make again. The ranch flavor got lost, I think I will try blue cheese next time. I put all ingredients into a crock pot, heated and it was done- very easy and it stayed warm. The flavors are even better the next day- when I make again, I will heat all ingredients in the crock pot, refrigerate, then reheat the next day. I served w/ celery and carrot sticks. My only suggestion for improvement upon the recipe is that I think the shredded cheese might be unnecessary- I even used sharp cheddar but could not taste it. I’ll probably just leave it out next time. Thanks for the recipe!
-
This was so much better than I even thought it would be! As soon as people heard what it was, they were diving in with tortilla chips, and not a trace was left in the pan. I used a package of boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cooked them the night before and then shredded them. The only change I made, was that I used colby instead of cheddar. It was decadent and delicious!
-
I just made this for a meeting at my house – all women and they went nuts over it. Hounded me for the recipe. They seemed to prefer it with nubs of celery instead of tortilla chips. Also, I used Tyson grilled precooked chicken strips cut into bites.
-
Delicious! it made an awesome dip for tailgate. i made it in a disposable tin foil pan and it was perfect for the tailgate.
-
This was really good, except for the fact that the chedder flavour was overpowering. Next time I’ll admit the chedder cheese, because I think the recipe could stand withoutit.
-
AMAZING!! It was the hit of the party!
-
My husband said to give this 5 stars. I used the store made bbq chicken. Very very easy.
-
Awful!!! I was so looking forward to it, it just had an “off” taste. Inedible – had to throw it out.
