Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups Cooked and shredded chicken
  • 12 oz Cream cheese softened
  • 6 tbsp Sour cream
  • 6 tbsp Low-carb ranch dressing
  • 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese divided
  • 1/4 cup Blue cheese crumbles divided
  • 6 tbsp Low-carb buffalo wing sauce
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp Smoked paprika
  • 2 medium Green onions thinly sliced (for garnish)
  • Non-stick cooking spray

Method
 

  1. Prepare Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, low-carb ranch dressing, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and low-carb buffalo wing sauce. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-integrated.
  2. Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the shredded chicken into the cream cheese mixture. Add 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese and 3 tablespoons of the blue cheese crumbles. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Load Slow Cooker: Lightly coat the interior of a small slow cooker (approximately 2-3 quart capacity) with non-stick cooking spray. Transfer the chicken mixture into the prepared slow cooker, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 3/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese uniformly over the top.
  4. Cook: Secure the lid onto the slow cooker. Cook the dip on the LOW heat setting for 1.5 to 2.5 hours, or until thoroughly heated and bubbling gently around the edges.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Once heated through, give the dip a gentle stir if desired. Sprinkle the sliced green onions and the remaining 1 tablespoon of blue cheese crumbles over the surface. Serve the dip warm with low-carb options like celery sticks, cucumber slices, bell pepper strips, pork rinds, or keto-friendly crackers.
