How to Make Buffalo Chicken Dip in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I made the original version of this recipe years ago, and it was a huge hit. I remembered it was pretty spicy, so I decided to try this version with a half cup of cayenne hot pepper sauce. The result still had amazing flavor, but the kick was more manageable for those in my house that have a bit of a hard time with spicy foods. This Buffalo Chicken Crock Pot Dip still had enough kick for my spicy food loving husband though, so it works well for all of us!
If you happen to have leftover rotisserie chicken or have leftovers after you made one of our other delicious chicken recipes that you would prefer to use, that will work too. I recommend our Crock Pot Shredded Chicken. It works great in so many different dishes and would taste great in this dip as well.
