This creamy, spicy buffalo chicken casserole packs all the bold flavor of game-day wings into one easy, cheesy bake. With tender shredded chicken, tangy buffalo sauce, and melty cheddar, it's a satisfying keto dinner that comes together in under an hour.

Ingredients

3 cups cooked shredded chicken (about 1.5 lbs / rotisserie works great)

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (such as Frank's RedHot, no added sugar)

1/2 cup full-fat sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese

4 oz cream cheese... (use the 8 oz above)

2 stalks celery, finely diced

2 green onions, sliced

1 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp onion powder

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, buffalo sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth and well combined.

Fold in the shredded chicken, diced celery, blue cheese crumbles, and 1 cup of the cheddar cheese until everything is evenly coated.

Spread the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until bubbly around the edges and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden.

Let rest 5 minutes, then garnish with sliced green onions and serve warm.

Tips & notes

Serve over cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or with celery sticks for scooping to keep it fully keto.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days; reheat in the oven or microwave until hot. The casserole also freezes well for up to 2 months.

Not a blue cheese fan? Swap it for extra cheddar or a ranch-style dressing folded in. Adjust the buffalo sauce up or down to control the heat.
