Possible Ingredient Alternatives
Greek yogurt can be replaced with sour cream for a tangier flavor and similar creamy texture. This substitution maintains the dip’s low-carb profile while offering a different taste. Use the same amount of sour cream as Greek yogurt.
Buffalo wing sauce can be substituted with a mixture of hot sauce and melted butter for a customizable heat level. Combine 1/2 cup hot sauce with 1/4 cup melted butter to replicate the buffalo sauce consistency and flavor. Adjust the ratio to taste.
Shredded chicken can be swapped with canned chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience. These options provide similar protein content and texture. If using canned chicken, drain well before adding to the dip. For a vegetarian version, try using mashed chickpeas or crumbled firm tofu, adjusting seasoning as needed to compensate for the milder flavor.

Ingredients
- 1/4 cup softened cream cheese
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt (*refer to notes)
- 3/4 cup buffalo wing sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2.5 cups cooked shredded chicken (approximately 2 breasts or 1 pound)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 green onions (finely sliced)
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 375°F.
This ensures that your dip will cook evenly once it goes into the oven.
Step 2: Prepare the Buffalo Chicken Mixture
In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and Greek yogurt to create a creamy base.
Add buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
Mix everything together until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Step 3: Incorporate Chicken and Cheese
Add shredded chicken and half of the cheddar cheese to the creamy mixture in the bowl.
Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are fully combined, ensuring the chicken is well coated with the creamy buffalo mixture.
Step 4: Assemble and Bake the Dip
Pour the buffalo chicken mixture into an oven-safe dish, such as a 10.25” round cast iron pan.
Spread the mixture into an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top of the mixture.
Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes.
Step 5: Broil for a Golden Finish
After the initial baking time, turn the oven to broil.
Broil the dip for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese on top becomes golden and bubbly.
Be sure to keep an eye on it to prevent burning.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Carefully remove the hot dish from the oven.
Top the dip with sliced green onions for a fresh garnish.
Serve immediately with your choice of chips or veggies for dipping.
Enjoy your delicious, melty buffalo chicken dip!
