Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz rotini pasta
  • 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ⅔ cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Boil pasta in salted water until just al dente, about 2 minutes less than package directions. Drain and set aside.
  2. Microwave cream cheese until soft, then whisk with sour cream, buffalo sauce, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Stir 1 cup cheddar into the sauce, then fold in pasta and chicken until coated. Transfer to a greased 9×13‑inch dish.
  4. Top with remaining cheddar. Bake 20 to 25 minutes until bubbly, broiling the last minute if you want a golden top.
  5. Let rest 5 minutes, garnish with green onions, and serve.

Notes

If your pasta and sauce come together faster than the oven preheats, just set the dish aside until the oven is ready. The casserole can sit at room temperature for up to 20 minutes before baking without any issues.
