The Superbowl is to Americans what World Cup is to the rest of the world. Americans and even non-Americans (like my family), gather on Superbowl Sunday to watch the game, enjoy the half time commercials, have fun with friends, and most importantly, enjoy the party food!
Whether baseball or football, when the World Series or Superbowl came around I knew my house was going to be filled with loud, beer-drinking, chip-eating, passionate people. The best thing we could do was make sure there was enough food around.
My house was filled with lots of Caribbean appetizers during these fun events. However, now that I no longer live at home, I have been exploring the idea of new and tasty appetizers that are not necessarily West Indian.
The first time I had this dip was at a bar here in Rochester, called Jeremiah’s. It was so delicious and such an awesome variation of the famous buffalo chicken wing. You get all the same flavors in a fun-to-eat way. Tasty chicken, ranch dressing with bubbling hot cheese. It’s so good, one bite isn’t enough. Buffalo chicken wings and dip are staples here in upstate New York. You’re bound to see this dip at many local eateries since the buffalo wing was founded in the neighboring city, Buffalo. Here’s my take on this popular dip!
Cook the chicken and set aside
Make the sauce and set aside
Chop chicken finely and add to the sauce
Bake the dip
Serve with tortilla chips and enjoy 🙂
