This Weight Watchers Buffalo chicken dip is a creamy and cheesy dip filled with cream cheese, buffalo wing sauce, ranch, cooked chicken, and gets topped with cheese and it can be made in the air fryer using an oven safe dish. It is a well-known dip or appetizer that anyone enjoys and comes together quickly. Guaranteed to show up at any game day event or Super Bowl party.

It isn’t the most photogenic dip to photograph because it’s an odd bright orange color but this will have to do. I recently updated this post with new pictures and the post to help you achieve the perfect buffalo chicken dip recipe. 7/24/2020

Why You Will Like Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Dip?

Did you know you can make hot dips in the air fryer? All you need is an oven proof safe dish small enough to fit in your air fryer basket of choice.

Ingredients for Air Fryer Buffalo Chicken Dip?

Chicken: Shredded rotisserie chicken or any type of pre-cooked chicken works well for this.
Cream Cheese: My favorite is whipped cream cheese because it’s light and fluffy and already soft so it is easy for mixing or spreading onto bagels. That is why I chose to use this in my dip.
Buffalo Sauce I always buy Franks, it’s pretty low in points already and you can have quite a bit for only 0 points.
Ranch Bolt House Farms Greek Style Ranch Dressing is my favorite Ranch dressing to get at the stores. You can use that or a packet 1 oz dry seasoning mix.

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Dip

Step 1 Preheat oven to 350°. Mix together the cream cheese, chicken, wing sauce, and ranch dressing into a bowl. Or preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees.

Step 2 Pour into an ungreased shallow 1-qt. baking dish. Spread cheese on top.

Step 3 Bake, uncovered, 20-25 minutes or until cheese is melted. This takes about the same time to air fry as well.

Recipe Tips and FAQS

How do you figure out points for recipes?

The recipe builder app from WW is what I use to figure out points for all my recipes. You have to pay the monthly fee in order to use it.

Why am I still getting different points?

This could be quite a number of reasons and here are a few that I have come across.
Number of servings
Low-Fat vs Fat-Free ingredients
Zero Point foods are different for all 3 plans
Using the nutrition info calculator instead of the recipe builder
Serve with baguette slices.

I have two air fryers. The Cosori 4 Qt Air Fryer and Ninja Woodfire Grill which is an outdoor air fryer. It’s pretty awesome! It has 5 different functions on it.

How do I store leftovers?

Always store leftovers in clean, food-grade containers. The type of container doesn’t really matter. Use zip lock, glass, plastic, whatever! Make sure to store any leftovers in an airtight container.

Best Air Fryer Tips!

Preheating ensures that the fries cook evenly and achieve the desired crispiness.
Avoid Overcrowding: Cooking in smaller batches will help the fries cook more evenly and get crispier.
Shaking the Basket: Shaking the basket halfway through cooking helps ensure that all the fries cook evenly.
Experiment with Seasonings: Feel free to experiment with different seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or Cajun spice to add an extra kick to your fries.
