The idea of a Buffalo Chicken Pie was inspired by my love of buffalo chicken and obsession with pie crust. Buffalo chicken dip is a bit too creamy and heavy for me. So baking it inside a crisp and flakey pie crust is the perfect addition to break up that heaviness. It's SO good and perfect for game day!
2cupscooked chicken, chopped thinly or roughly shredded
½cupbuffalo sauce
6oz.cream cheese
¾cupmonterey jack cheese, shredded*or mozzarella
½cupcheddar cheese, shredded
½cupblue cheese crumbles, reserve some for topping
2scallions, chopped
½teaspoonsalt
¼cupmilk
2largeeggs
2pie crusts
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350℉.
Press first pie dough into a 9" pie dish. Top with second pie dough and crimp edges together to seal.
Add chicken to the crust.
Mix together buffalo sauce, cream cheese, both shredded cheeses, scallions, milk and eggs in a large bowl using a hand mixer. Mix in blue cheese crumbles by hand. *Reserve ¼ cup of cheese to add to the top.
Pour mixture over chicken and top with scallions and more cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the pie filling is not jiggly and the crust has browned.
Let cool for a bit before serving. Serve each slice with a drizzle of ranch, blue cheese and or more buffalo sauce over top! More scallions are a nice garnish!
