To make this chicken frito pie, I started by dumping some shredded rotisserie chicken into a large mixing bowl.

If you don't want to use grocery store rotisserie chicken you can precook your own chicken.

I like to cook chicken breasts in my Instant Pot and then use them for multiple recipes.

 

Then I added some Buffalo sauce and ranch dressing to the bowl.

I stirred until all of the chicken was coated in sauce.

Then I added some diced celery, chopped green onions and shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese to the bowl.

 

I stirred until all of the ingredients were fully combined.

Then I dumped the chicken mixture into a greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.

I sprinkled some Fritos corn chips on top of the chicken.

Then I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese over the corn chips.

 

I sprinkled some chopped green onions on top of the cheese.

Then I placed the dish in the oven and baked the frito pie until the cheese on top was completely melted and starting to brown.

I scooped and served the chicken frito pie immediately.

This hearty dish is sure to please the whole family.

I used mild Buffalo sauce in this recipe but you could use hot if you prefer more of a kick.
