Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

½ tablespoon olive oil
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, diced
½ tablespoon garlic powder
1 (8 ounce) package fat-free cream cheese, softened
½ cup crumbled blue cheese
½ cup fat-free blue cheese salad dressing

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Mix blue cheese salad dressing and Buffalo sauce together in a bowl; pour evenly over cream cheese and chicken. Top with smoked Cheddar cheese.

Provided by bsmyth10

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ounces reduced-fat (or fat-free) cream cheese, softened
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 cup part-skim Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup hot sauce, I prefer Frank's
1/2 cup crumbled light blue cheese
1 tablespoons ranch seasoning, optional
3 cups cooked chicken, shredded

Steps:

  • To Make In The Oven: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, stir all ingredients together until well-mixed. Transfer mixture to a small greased baking dish, and bake for 30 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the edges begin to slightly brown. Remove and serve immediately. To Make On The Stove: Stir all ingredients together in a medium saucepan until combined over medium-low heat. Continue heating for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted and the dip is simmering.

Tips:

  • For a healthier version, use non-fat Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
  • To make the dip spicier, add more cayenne pepper or hot sauce.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
  • Be sure to shred your chicken finely so that it mixes well with the other ingredients.
  • Serve the dip with your favorite dippers, such as celery sticks, carrot sticks, or tortilla chips.

Conclusion:

This skinny buffalo chicken dip is a delicious and healthy appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it mild or spicy, this dip is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a crowd-pleasing snack, give this recipe a try.
