Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup Frank's RedHot Sauce
- 1/2 cup ranch dressing
- 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or 8x8 baking dish.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, ranch dressing, and Frank's RedHot Sauce until smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the shredded chicken, 1 cup of the cheddar cheese, and the blue cheese (if using) until evenly combined.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden at the edges.
- Let the dip rest for 5 minutes to set. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve warm.
Notes
For a lump-free dip, ensure cream cheese is fully softened. The dip can be assembled a day ahead and refrigerated before baking; add 5-10 minutes to bake time. Leftovers reheat well in the oven or microwave.
