Frank’s Red-Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip
April 8, 2020
An all-time favorite of mine, Frank’s Red-Hot Buffalo chicken dip never fails to disappoint. Now, there are several variations of this glorious appetizer; you could use Franks Red-Hot Cayenne Pepper sauce instead of Frank’s Red-Hot Buffalo sauce, or perhaps you could use blue cheese instead of ranch. You could add scallions on top of the dip. You could eat the dip with crackers or celery instead of tortilla chips. I’m telling you guys; the possibilities are endless. If you’re not one for semi-spicy food, then Frank’s Red-Hot Buffalo chicken dip may not be for you. I’d give it a three on the spicy-ness scale.
I have experimented with different variations of the dip, and they were all delightful. However, I plan to share the recipe variation that has stuck with me the most throughout my years as a Frank’s Red-Hot Buffalo chicken dip connoisseur. It’s easy, quick, relatively cheap, doesn’t take many ingredients and tastes delightful.
