1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup buffalo wing sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
8 oz cream cheese, cubed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
½ cup ranch dressing or blue cheese dressing
½ cup water
Optional toppings: green onions, blue cheese crumbles
Add chicken breasts and water to the Instant Pot. Seal the lid and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
Quick release the pressure, remove the chicken, and shred using two forks.
Discard the remaining liquid. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
Add buffalo sauce, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing. Stir to combine.
Turn on the Sauté function and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture is fully melted, smooth, and heated through (about 5–7 minutes).
Transfer to a serving bowl and top with green onions or blue cheese if desired. Serve warm with chips, veggies, or bread.
