Ingredients

The Dip

1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
½ cup (120g) ranch dressing
⅓ cup (83g) sour cream
1 cup (112g) cheddar cheese
¼-⅓ cup (60-80g) hot sauce (adjust to taste)
1 teaspoon (4g) Creole seasoning, optional
1 teaspoon (5g) minced garlic
2 teaspoons (10g) Worcestershire sauce
black pepper to taste
2-3 cups (450-670g) shredded chicken
2-3 ounces (60-90g) crumbled blue cheese

To Serve

homemade tortilla chips
crackers
carrot or celery sticks
sliced baguette

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Mix cream cheese, ranch dressing, and sour cream in a large bowl with a hand mixer or a large spoon until fully combined. Scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula if using the electric mixer.
Toss in the cheddar cheese, hot sauce, Creole seasoning, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Continue mixing until completely incorporated.
Add the shredded chicken and mix well. I like some chunks of chicken in my dip. Or continue mixing with an electric hand mixer until it shreds completely. Adjust seasonings to taste, and pour it into an 8-inch baking dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until it bubbles along the sides. Top with the crumbled blue cheese.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, crackers, a sliced baguette, or a combination of all the above.

Notes

Leftover rotisserie or smoked chicken works great
Adjust the amount of hot sauce and cheese to your preferences
