Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Spread rice in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour Buffalo chicken mixture on top. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until Cheddar cheese is melted and bubbly, about 45 minutes. Sprinkle corn chips on top.
Step 4
Bring a large pot of water to a boil; add chicken tenders. Cook until no longer pink in the center and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and cool until easily handled, about 5 minutes. Shred chicken with 2 forks.
Step 5
Beat cream cheese in a blender until smooth. Add ranch dressing, Buffalo wing sauce, and water; blend until smooth. Mix in shredded chicken and Colby-Jack cheese.
