Preparation
Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Lightly grease a 20cm (8-inch) baking dish.
Mixing
In a medium bowl, combine softened cream cheese, ranch dressing, and Buffalo hot sauce. Mix well until smooth and creamy.
Mixing
Fold in the shredded chicken until evenly coated with the sauce mixture.
Assembly
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly.
Assembly
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. If using, also sprinkle blue cheese crumbles.
Cooking
Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, until bubbly and the cheese is melted and lightly golden on top.
Finishing
Remove from oven and let cool slightly for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
Tips & notes
Use cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience. Adjust the amount of Buffalo sauce to control the heat level. Serve with celery sticks, tortilla chips, or bread slices for dipping.
Saving it for later
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Before storing, let the dip cool completely.
Reheating
Reheat leftovers in a microwave-safe dish in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until heated through. Alternatively, reheat in a preheated 175°C (350°F) oven for about 10 minutes until warmed and bubbly.
