EASY MAKE-AHEAD BUFFALO CHICKEN DIP WITH BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the softened cream cheese to a large bowl and stir until smooth and creamy. Add the dressing, buffalo sauce, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese, the blue cheese, and chicken. Stir to combine.
• Place this mixture in a small baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Sprinkle the remainder of the cheese on top.

FRIED BUFFALO WINGS WITH BLUE CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Make the dip: Pulse the sour cream, blue cheese, mayonnaise, garlic, milk and lemon juice in a food processor until combined but still chunky. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Make the wings: Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Set a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Mix the flour and paprika in a shallow dish. Dredge the wings in the flour mixture to coat, tapping off the excess. Fry the wings in batches, turning as needed, until cooked through and deep golden brown, about 15 minutes. (Return the oil to 375 degrees F between batches.) Remove with tongs and transfer to the rack to drain.
• Meanwhile, combine the hot sauce, butter and honey in a medium pot over medium heat until the butter melts. Continue to cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Reserve one-quarter of the sauce for serving. Add the cooked wings to the pot and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the blue cheese dip and reserved sauce.

• Season the chicken with salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste. Lightly beat the egg white and water in a medium bowl. Combine the panko and cayenne on a sheet of waxed paper. Dip each tender into the egg whites, shaking off excess, and then roll into the panko to coat. Place the chicken on the baking sheet in 1 layer and generously spray with cooking spray. Bake on the top rack of the oven until the chicken is cooked through and golden brown, about 20 minutes. Serve with the dip and assorted crudites.
