2 cups cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup ranch dressing
½ cup buffalo sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Optional: chopped green onions or blue cheese crumbles for garnish
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the Dip Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, and buffalo sauce. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add Chicken and Cheese: Fold in the shredded chicken, ½ cup of cheddar cheese, and ½ cup of mozzarella cheese into the mixture.
Transfer to Baking Dish: Spread the mixture evenly into a 9×9-inch baking dish.
Top with Remaining Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of cheddar cheese and ½ cup of mozzarella cheese over the top of the dip.
Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the dip is heated through.
Garnish and Serve: If desired, garnish with chopped green onions or blue cheese crumbles. Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
