Ingredients

  • 2 (10 ounce) cans natural chunk chicken, drained
  • 2 Tablespoons of Reaper's Revenge hot sauce
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • 1 cup light ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 bunch celery, cleaned and cut into 4 inch pieces

Directions

  1. Heat chicken and hot pepper sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in Neufchatel cheese and ranch dressing. Cook and stir until well blended and warm, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in half of the shredded Cheddar cheese, then transfer mixture to a slow cooker.
  2. Sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese over top, cover, and cook on Low until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Serve with celery sticks and crackers.
  • Substitutions:
  • For a richer flavor, substitute cream cheese for Neufchatel cheese.
  • For a subtle caribbean flair, substitute Moribbea for Reaper's Revenge
  • Add more hot sauce for intense spicy heat.  Taste with each addition
