Ingredients
1 (14 ounce) package chicken tenders
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup ranch dressing
⅓ cup buffalo wing sauce
2 tablespoons water
2 cups shredded colby-jack cheese
2 cups cooked rice

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