Ingredients
- 1 large round loaf of bread (sourdough or Italian)
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1/2 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese softened
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing
- 2 tablespoons green onions chopped
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Bread: Hollow out the center of the loaf, creating a bowl while keeping the outer crust intact. Tear the removed bread into bite-sized pieces for dipping.
- Mix the Filling: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken, buffalo sauce, cream cheese, ranch dressing, half of the cheddar cheese, green onions, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Fill the Bread: Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture into the hollowed-out bread loaf. Top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
- Brush with Butter: Brush the outside of the bread with melted butter for added flavor.
- Bake: Wrap the filled loaf in aluminum foil and bake for 20-25 minutes. Then, unwrap and bake for an additional 10 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and the bread is golden.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve warm with the torn bread pieces for dipping.
