Buffalo Chicken Dip (High-Protein, Low-Carb, Dopamine-Centric Version)

This Buffalo Chicken Dip is a high-protein, low-carb, neuro-optimized appetizer inspired by the classic American recipe, but updated to fit a dopamine-rich, serotonin-minimizing, muscle-building eating style. Tender shredded chicken breast combines with creamy Greek yogurt, hot pepper sauce, and a tangy yogurt ranch dressing—delivering craveable, wing-inspired flavor with far more protein and far fewer carbs than the traditional version. A touch of egg and optional poultry liver boosts dopamine substrate for focused energy. Served hot and bubbly, this dip pairs perfectly with crisp celery sticks, sugar snap peas, and grain-free crackers for a snack that supports brain health, hormone balance, and muscle recovery. Balanced, energizing, and satisfying, this dish is ideal for party platters or post-workout fuel.
