Ingredients
  

2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie chicken works beautifully)

1 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

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

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for an extra depth of flavor)

Sliced green onions, for garnish

Tortilla chips, celery sticks, or sliced bread for serving

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready when you're done mixing.

    Combine the Creamy Base: In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Using a hand mixer or a sturdy spatula, blend these ingredients until they reach a smooth and creamy consistency.

      Incorporate Chicken and Cheese: Gently fold in the shredded cooked chicken, shredded mozzarella, and shredded cheddar cheese. Make sure everything is mixed well to achieve a uniform texture.

        Add the Seasonings: Drizzle in the buffalo wing sauce and sprinkle the garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika (if using) over the mixture. Stir thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly combined.

          Transfer to a Baking Dish: Take a medium baking dish and pour the creamy dip mixture into it. Spread it out evenly with a spatula for even baking.

            Bake Until Bubbly: Place the baking dish in your preheated oven and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on it until the dip is bubbly and the cheese has fully melted.

              Garnish and Serve: Once done, take the dip out of the oven and sprinkle sliced green onions on top for a pop of freshness and color. Serve hot alongside tortilla chips, celery sticks, or slices of bread for dipping.
