Ingredients
  

2 cups shredded cooked chicken (preferably from a rotisserie)

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

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (adjust according to your spice preference)

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped (for garnish)

Tortilla chips, celery sticks, or assorted veggies (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking.

    Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the ranch dressing. Use a hand mixer or a fork to blend them until the mixture is creamy and smooth.

      Incorporate Chicken and Sauces: Add the shredded chicken and buffalo wing sauce to the bowl. Stir well until all the chicken is thoroughly coated with the sauce.

        Mix in the Cheeses: Gently fold in the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, ensuring to reserve a handful of each cheese for the topping later.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Scoop the chicken and cheese mixture into a 9x9 inch baking dish or a similarly sized oven-safe dish. Use a spatula to smooth the mixture into an even layer across the dish.

            Top with Remaining Cheese: Sprinkle the reserved cheddar and mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the mixture to create a deliciously gooey cheese crust.

              Bake to Perfection: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbling, and the cheese on top is melted and slightly golden.

                Garnish and Serve: Once done, carefully remove the dip from the oven. Sprinkle the chopped green onions on top for a vibrant touch and additional flavor. Serve the dip warm with a side of tortilla chips, crispy celery sticks, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
