Ingredients
- 12 oz Spaghetti
- 2 cups Milk
- 1.5 cups Shredded Chicken
- ½ cup Buffalo Sauce
- 8 oz Cream Cheese room temperature
- ½ cup Ranch Dressing
- ½ cup Sour Cream
- 1.5 cups Cheddar Cheese shredded and divided
- 1.5 cup Mozzarella Cheese shredded and divided
- ½ cup Blue Cheese crumbled (optional)
- Kosher Salt
Instructions
- Boil spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Set aside 1 cup of pasta water, then drain and set aside.
- In a separate pot, combine milk, buffalo sauce, cream cheese and ranch over medium heat. Stir until the cream cheese melts and blends with the buffalo sauce.
- Then stir in the chicken, sour cream, and half of the cheddar and half of the mozzarella.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Adjust spice level by adding more buffalo sauce. Taste and season with more salt if needed. If it's dry, add about ½ cup of the reserved pasta water to loose it up.
- Add al dente pasta to a greased baking dish then pour the sauce over the top and gently stir it together so every noodle is coated.
- Top the mixture with the remaining shredded cheddar, mozzarella cheese and blue cheese crumbles.
- Put it under the broiler for 3 minutes or so or until the cheese is bubbly and starting to brown.
- Remove from heat and let it rest for one minute before serving.
