Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2.25 cup shredded cooked chicken
- 9 oz cream cheese softened
- 0.45 cup buffalo-style hot sauce
- 0.4 cup ranch dressing
- 0.25 cup sour cream
- 1.75 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese divided
- 0.75 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.75 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.25 tsp ground black pepper
- 0.25 tsp fine salt
- 0.25 cup sliced green onions for garnish
- 2 tbsp crumbled blue cheese optional, for topping
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Heat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a small baking dish.
- Soften cream cheese until spreadable. Microwave briefly or let sit at room temperature.
- Whisk cream cheese with hot sauce, ranch, and sour cream until smooth.
- Stir in chicken, mozzarella, and about 1 cup cheddar. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and salt.
- Spread mixture in the dish. Sprinkle remaining cheddar over the top.
- Bake until hot and bubbly, 18–22 minutes. Broil 1–2 minutes to brown the cheese, if desired.
- Rest 5 minutes. Garnish with green onions and blue cheese. Serve warm with celery, carrots, or chips.
Notes
Variation: Swap ranch with blue cheese dressing for a bolder bite, or add 1–2 tbsp melted butter for extra richness. To keep warm for a party, transfer the baked dip to a small slow cooker on Warm. Leftovers keep up to 4 days refrigerated; reheat gently in the oven or microwave, stirring once.
