Buffalo Chicken Dip
BY BELLA BUTLER
What better way to get in the holiday spirit than with a little spice? Buffalo spice, that is. Each year at Outlaw Partners, our team engages in a friendly cooking competition. This year, our esteemed office chefs created dishes that were both baked and included cheese. The final spread was as diverse as it was tasty, but in an understated aluminum pan, Outlaw Marketing Coordinator Sophia Breyfogle’s buffalo chicken dip was a clear favorite. With only a handful of ingredients and steps you can count on a single hand, this recipe is a quick and easy way to please your guests. “This is my absolute go-to for a game night with friends,” Breyfogle said. “And by game night I mean hockey, not NFL. Go Washington Capitals!” Below is Breyfogle’s recipe, adapted from The Forked Spoon. Ingredients • 3-4 cups of cooked, shredded chicken (whatever you have works!) • 8 oz cream cheese • 1 cup ranch dressing • 1 cup hot sauce • 1 tsp garlic powder • ½ cup chopped green onions or chives • Shredded cheese (1.5 cup cheddar, 1.5 cup mozzarella)
The experience, accreditation, industry-wide recognition and integrity that Southwest Montana deserves.

Those advisors that are considered have a minimum of seven years experience, and the algorithm weights factors like revenue trends, assets under management, compliance records, industry experience and those that encompass best practices in their practices and approach to working with clients.

Method 1. Cook the chicken. If the chicken is still raw, cook it how you like; poaching, sautéing and baking are a few options. While your chicken is cooking, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9x9 pan. 2. Prepare the creamy buffalo ranch sauce. Heat the cream cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder and hot sauce in a pot over medium heat. 3. Combine and bake. Add chicken, green onion and 2 cups of the cheese to the sauce and pour into the greased pan. Top with the remaining cheese and bake until the top is bubbling and golden brown. Enjoy with chips or your favorite sauce vehicle.
