Ingredients
  

2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken is ideal)

1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup buffalo sauce (adjust based on desired spice level)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (divided)

1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional, for a tangy kick)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Dippables: Celery sticks, tortilla chips, or warmed pita bread

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Set your oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) to preheat while you prepare the dip.

    Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Use an electric mixer or a sturdy spatula to blend the ingredients together until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

      Incorporate Flavorings: Add the buffalo sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to the bowl. Mix these ingredients together thoroughly until they are fully incorporated into the cream cheese mixture.

        Mix in Chicken and Cheese: Gently fold the shredded chicken into the mixture, along with 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese and the crumbled blue cheese (if you’re using it). Ensure that the chicken is evenly distributed throughout the mixture, then season with salt and pepper to taste.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Spoon the prepared dip into a 9-inch baking dish or an oven-safe skillet, spreading it out evenly.

            Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the dip, ensuring a cheesy crust.

              Bake the Dip: Place the dish in your preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the cheese on top has melted to a golden brown.

                Serving Suggestions: Once baked, carefully remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool slightly. Serve warm with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or warmed pita bread for a delicious dipping experience!
