When it comes to creating the perfect appetizer, simplicity often reigns supreme. This recipe was initially intended as a Three-Ingredient No Bake Buffalo Chicken Dip.
However, to ensure transparency and avoid any potential backlash on social media, let’s be honest: we will be incorporating more than just three ingredients.
While it is certainly possible to stick to a minimalist approach, enhancing the flavor profile with a few additional ingredients transforms this dip into something truly exceptional.
With the Thanksgiving season approaching, feel free to repurpose any leftover turkey if you wish. For this recipe, at first, I opted for store-bought rotisserie chicken, making it an ideal choice for our football party gatherings, but making your own is so much better.
I used chicken breast which was juicy and flavorful after it was cooked. I loved it so much more, but you be the judge. Getting store-bought rotisserie chicken is an amazing alternative which I would probably do more often.
As a dip enthusiast, I must admit that my lack of self-control around dips can be dangerous, I can’t really resist it.
Fortunately, this buffalo chicken dip is a no-bake, allowing you to prepare it in advance and store it in the refrigerator for up to three days—if it lasts that long! In my household, dishes like this tend to disappear rather quickly.
If you share my passion for culinary experimentation, consider adding ingredients like corn, black beans, jalapeños, or sweet peppers.
Alternatively, you could create mini pepper boats stuffed with this tasty No Bake Buffalo Chicken Dip for a keto-friendly twist, or serve it with carrots and celery for a healthier option.
I am also going to post a baked version stick around. I will announce it on my social media when it is posted. Get ready to impress your guests with this flavorful dip perfect for any occasion!

No Bake Buffalo Chicken Dip
When it comes to creating the perfect appetizer, simplicity often reigns supreme. This recipe for No Bake Buffalo Chicken Dip is tasty, easy, and perfect for any party.
Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 whole chicken breast (two halves)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 cup chicken bone broth
Additional ingredinets:
- 1 cream cheese, room temp.
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1/4 cup buffalo sauce
Garnish:
- Green (spring) onion
Instructions
Chicken:
- You Can use store-bought Rotisserie Chicken, but make it taste so much better. Season the chicken well, then cook for a few minutes on each side to kind of sear it and get some color, then add chicken broth, lower the temperature to low, cover, and let it cook for 15 minutes on one side, then turn the chicken breast around and cook for 15 minutes on the other side. Chicken should be tender and ready to shred.
- Remove some of the liquid out but leave some in, 3 to 4 tablespoons.
Dip:
- Cut chicken into smaller chunky pieces then place chicken into a deep dish along with other ingredients then use your electric mixer to shred chicken. This could be done with your stand mixer in a low-power setting. Shred the chicken until you reach your desired consistency, about 30 seconds. You can do this old-fashioned way and use two forks as well to shred chicken. NOTE: If you are using FORKS to shred chicken then I would shred the chicken first and then combine it with all the other ingredients otherwise stick to the plan unless you want chicken pate dip. Read notes!
- Cover and allow the dip to firm up for at least 30 minutes before eating. Garnish with green onion if desired.
Notes
- As i said you can use a rotisserie chicken from the store, just make sure to remove the skin. You can use whole chicken. I made it the first time with it and I shredded chicken alone before adding all the other ingredients and it was more like a pate dip. If you are unto then go ahead and make it how you like it.
- I would most definitely shred chicken together with ingredients if you want more bite, and texture in your dip. This is only if you are using an electric or stand-up mixer because it is more powerful and blends chicken with cream cheese and buffalo sauce very well.
- However, when you make your own chicken 1. You are in control of spices and seasonings, and 2. chicken is far more juicy. In my opinion tastes much better, but if you want short cuts then rotisserie chicken is really a lifesaver.
