Buffalo chicken wings turned into the easiest, creamiest, and cheesiest dip ever! And it’s even better with this fun Mexican twist!
It’s finally here! Yes, football season has officially begun. And you know you can’t start football season without celery sticks and the usualbuffalo chicken dip.
But this isn’t your ordinary buffalo chicken dip. Yes, it still has all that extra creamy, cheesy goodness but it has a fun Mexican twist with a hidden layer of refried beans, making this dip just so much better than the original version. And withPHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, you just can’t go wrong here.
From fresh local milk and real wholesome cream, going from farm to fridge in just six days, PHILADELPHIA is the only cream cheese to use to get that extra creaminess in an epic dip like this.
You can even take this dip a bit further and add in some fresh avocado slices. After all, avocado makes everything better, right?

Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut crosswise in half
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 cup Frank’s® RedHot® Original Cayenne Pepper, or more, to taste
- 1 16-ounce black bean refried beans
- 4 ounces PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese, cubed
- 1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 avocado, halved, seeded, peeled and sliced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly coat an 8×8 baking dish with nonstick spray.
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Season chicken breast with salt and pepper, to taste. Add to skillet and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Let cool before shredding and combining with Frank’s RedHot; set aside.
Reheat refried beans according to package instructions. Spread the refried beans in an even layer into the prepared baking dish. Without stirring, top with PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese. Spread the chicken mixture on top in an even layer and sprinkle with cheese.
Place into oven and bake until bubbly, about 15-18 minutes.
Serve immediately, drizzled with sour cream and garnished with avocado and cilantro, if desired.

I generally like this recipe but there is WAY too much hot sauce in the recipe. I used Frank’s Hot Wings – hot buffalo and it was truly that HOT! I’d cut it in half and probably use a more mild sauce. My guests liked it but all said that it had a pretty good bite.

Can you make this in advance and then reheat for a potluck?

I can´t find the mexican cheese blend in any supermarket. They don’t sell it where I live. With what other cheese can I replace it?

Cheddar cheese will also work just fine.

Could this be assembled in advance? If so, what do you suggest? I hate being in the kitchen when guests are over and prefer to have everything ready to go. Thanks!

Maria, it should be fine to assemble as is and then placed in the oven when ready to bake.

Any thoughts on ways to make this meatless? I know that defeats Buffalo “chicken” but buffalo chicken was my daughter’s favorite food before she became vegetarian years ago … always looking for new ways she can have it. Thanks!

Michelle, you can try substituting quinoa for the chicken.

Kristen, the recipe is correct. But you can certainly use more chicken as needed. I’ve actually used a single chicken breast that weighed as much as one pound!
