Servings: 16 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup Frank’s RedHot Original (adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing (or blue cheese dressing for a sharper bite)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella (optional, for extra melt)
  • 1/3 cup blue cheese crumbles (optional, for topping)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
  • Pinch of garlic powder and black pepper
  • Dippers: celery sticks, carrot sticks, tortilla chips, pita chips, pretzel thins, or toasted baguette

Instructions

  • Heat the oven: Preheat to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small baking dish (8x8 or similar).
  • Soften the base: In a mixing bowl, stir cream cheese until smooth. If it’s too firm, microwave it for 15–20 seconds.
  • Build the flavor: Add ranch, Frank’s RedHot, garlic powder, and pepper. Stir until creamy and fully blended.
  • Add the chicken: Fold in shredded chicken and cheddar. Mix until evenly coated. If using mozzarella, fold that in too.
  • Bake: Spread into the baking dish. Bake 18–22 minutes, until hot and bubbling around the edges.
  • Finish and serve: Sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and green onions. Serve hot with your favorite dippers.
