- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken - 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened - 1/2 cup buffalo sauce - 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese For these breadsticks, I love using shredded cooked chicken. You can use rotisserie chicken for ease. Cream cheese adds a rich, smooth texture. The buffalo sauce gives a nice spicy kick. I like to mix in shredded cheddar for extra flavor and gooeyness. - 1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles - Fresh parsley for garnish Blue cheese crumbles add a bold taste. If you are not a fan, you can skip it. Chopped parsley makes a fresh, colorful touch on top of the breadsticks. It adds flavor and makes the dish look pretty. - 1 package (1 lb) pizza dough - 1 tablespoon olive oil - 1 teaspoon garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon onion powder - 1/4 teaspoon salt - 1/4 teaspoon pepper I use pizza dough for a soft and chewy base. Olive oil helps to brown the breadsticks nicely. Garlic powder and onion powder bring out great flavors. A little salt and pepper help balance everything out. This dough is key to making these tasty treats! To make the filling, start with shredded chicken. In a large bowl, mix the chicken with softened cream cheese. Then, add buffalo sauce and stir well. This gives the mixture a spicy kick. Next, fold in shredded cheddar cheese for creaminess. If you like blue cheese, add the crumbles too. This step makes the filling rich and flavorful. Now, let’s roll out the pizza dough. On a floured surface, stretch the dough into a rectangle. Aim for about 1/4 inch thick. This thickness helps the breadsticks cook evenly. Once you have a nice rectangle, cut the dough into strips. Each strip should be about 2 inches wide and 6 inches long. This is where the fun starts! Take a dough strip and place about 2 tablespoons of the buffalo chicken mixture on one end. Carefully roll the dough over the filling. Tuck in the sides as you roll to seal the filling inside. Pinch the ends to keep everything secure. After you finish rolling all the breadsticks, brush the tops with olive oil. This adds a lovely shine and helps them crisp up in the oven. Place the breadsticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake them at 375°F for 15-20 minutes. Watch for a golden brown color. Once done, let them cool for a few minutes. Enjoy your warm, cheesy breadsticks! - Ensuring the perfect dough consistency Use room temperature pizza dough. This makes it easy to roll. If it feels sticky, add a sprinkle of flour. Aim for a smooth surface, about 1/4 inch thick. This will help the breadsticks bake evenly. - How to achieve a golden brown finish Brush the tops with olive oil before baking. This gives them that nice, golden color. Bake them in a preheated oven at 375°F for 15 to 20 minutes. Watch them closely. When they are golden brown, they are ready! - Best dips to serve with breadsticks Serve these breadsticks warm with extra buffalo sauce. Ranch or blue cheese dressing pairs great, too. These dips add extra flavor and creaminess that everyone loves! - Presentation tips for a rustic look Use a basket lined with parchment paper to serve. This adds charm and keeps the breadsticks warm. Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color. It makes the dish look fresh and inviting. - Prepare and freeze for later use You can make these breadsticks ahead of time. Stuff and roll them, then place them on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, then transfer to a bag. They can last up to three months in the freezer. - Reheating instructions for best results To reheat, bake from frozen at 375°F for about 20 to 25 minutes. Check until they’re hot and golden brown. This keeps them crispy on the outside and warm on the inside. {{image_2}} You can spice up your buffalo chicken dip by adding more heat. Use extra buffalo sauce or add diced jalapeños for a kick. To mix up the flavors, try different cheeses too. Instead of cheddar, use Monterey Jack or pepper jack. The creaminess changes the taste and makes it fun. Dip your breadsticks in ranch or blue cheese dressing. Ranch gives a creamy touch, while blue cheese adds a bold flavor. You can also try other sauces like honey mustard or barbecue. Each sauce brings its own twist to your experience. If you need gluten-free options, choose gluten-free pizza dough. Many brands offer tasty choices that work well. For vegetarian friends, swap the chicken with beans or roasted veggies. This way, everyone can enjoy these stuffed breadsticks! To keep your leftover breadsticks fresh, wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil. Place them in an airtight container. This helps keep the moisture in and the breadsticks soft. They can stay fresh in the fridge for up to three days. Make sure to eat them before they dry out! If you want to save breadsticks for later, freezing is a great option. First, let them cool completely. Then, wrap each breadstick in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe bag. They can last in the freezer for up to three months. When you’re ready to eat, take them out and thaw them in the fridge overnight. To reheat, bake them at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-15 minutes. This will make them warm and crispy again. Check your breadsticks for signs of spoilage before eating. If they smell sour or have a strange color, it’s best to throw them away. Also, feel for any slimy texture. Always follow food safety rules to stay safe! Yes, you can use store-bought buffalo chicken dip. It saves time and effort. But homemade dip tastes fresher. Store-bought dips may have less control over spice and flavor. If you love a kick, check the label. Choose one that suits your taste. Shredded rotisserie chicken works best for this recipe. It is already cooked and full of flavor. Just shred the chicken into small pieces. You can use leftover chicken too. Any cooked chicken works well, but rotisserie makes it easy. To make them veggie-friendly, replace chicken with cooked veggies. You can try mushrooms, bell peppers, or spinach. Mix these with the cream cheese and buffalo sauce. This gives you a tasty veggie dip. You can adjust the spices for more flavor. Yes, you can bake them from frozen. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place frozen breadsticks on a baking sheet. Bake for about 20-25 minutes. Check if they are golden brown and hot inside. Let them cool a bit before serving. In this post, we explored how to make Buffalo Chicken Dip Stuffed Breadsticks.
