Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked rotisserie chicken (shredded)
- 1/3 cup Frank’s Hot Sauce
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup shredded cheese (Mexican blend recommended)
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons green onions (finely chopped)
- 1/3 cup crumbled blue cheese
For Garnish and Serving
- Green onions (chopped, to garnish)
- Crackers or tortilla chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the dip.
- Toss chicken with hot sauce: In a medium bowl, mix the shredded rotisserie chicken thoroughly with Frank’s Hot Sauce to evenly coat the chicken in flavor.
- Combine remaining ingredients: Stir in the mayonnaise, shredded cheese, lemon juice, and finely chopped green onions into the chicken mixture until everything is well combined.
- Prepare the baking dish: Spread the mixture evenly into a 1 and 1/2 quart shallow dish, such as a pie plate, then sprinkle the crumbled blue cheese evenly on top.
- Bake the dip: Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and heated through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven, garnish with additional chopped green onions if desired, and serve warm with tortilla chips, Ritz crackers, or pita chips.
Notes
- You can use any cooked chicken for this recipe, but rotisserie chicken provides great flavor and convenience.
- Adjust the amount of hot sauce depending on your desired spice level.
- For a creamier dip, add a little cream cheese or sour cream if desired.
- This dip can be prepared ahead and refrigerated, then baked just before serving.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated.
