A warm, creamy, and spicy buffalo chicken dip served in a hollowed-out sourdough bread bowl, perfect for cozy gatherings and casual parties.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken (300g)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened (225g)
  • 1/2 cup buffalo sauce (120ml)
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing (60ml)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (100g)
  • 2 tbsp sliced green onions
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large round sourdough bread bowl (6–8 inch)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cut a circle around the top of the sourdough loaf about 2 inches from the edge. Remove the top and hollow out the inside, leaving about a 1-inch thick shell. Reserve the removed bread for dipping.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, buffalo sauce, ranch dressing, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  4. Fold in shredded chicken and half of the shredded cheddar cheese until evenly mixed.
  5. Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture into the hollowed bread bowl, pressing lightly to fill evenly. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Place the filled bread bowl on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Remove from oven, sprinkle sliced green onions on top, and serve immediately with reserved bread chunks for dipping.

Notes

Soften cream cheese completely before mixing for a smooth dip. Hollow the bread bowl leaving a thick enough shell to prevent leaks. Reserve and toast the removed bread for dipping. Cover with foil if bread crust browns too quickly. Can broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra char. Adjust buffalo sauce to taste for heat level.
