🧾Party Dip Ingredients
Here’s what you need to make this party dip:
- Shredded Rotisserie Chicken Breasts: This is the heart of the dip for me. It gives the dip that nice, hearty texture, and it balances out all the creamy and spicy flavors in the best way.
- Cream Cheese: I love how creamy and smooth this makes the dip. It also helps tone down the heat from the hot sauce, so you get a perfect mix of spicy and creamy.
- Ranch Dressing: This is a game-changer. It adds a tangy, herb-y kick that just works so well with the spicy hot sauce.
- Hot Sauce (e.g., Frank's Red Hot): This is where the magic happens. It’s the spicy kick that makes this dip unforgettable. I always go for a bit more because I love that extra heat!
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper: It’s that little touch of spice that makes the flavor pop. I don’t add too much, but just enough to make everything come alive.
- Garlic Powder: I’m a huge fan of garlic, and this adds a savory depth that makes the dip so flavorful without being overpowering.
- Shredded Mozzarella Cheese: This is what gives the dip that perfect gooeyness. I’m all about that melt-in-your-mouth cheese factor, and mozzarella really delivers.
- Shredded Cheddar Cheese: It’s the bold flavor that makes the dip even cheesier. I love the sharpness it adds, especially when it gets all golden and bubbly on top.
- Tortilla Chips, Crackers, or Veggies: I always have a few options for dipping, whether I’m in the mood for something crunchy like chips, or something a bit fresher like veggies. Everything tastes amazing with this dip!

👩🏻🍳How to Make Party Dip
These step-by-step instructions and photos will help you to visualize how to make this recipe. See the recipe card for a printable version of this recipe.

1. Make the Sauce: Heat cream cheese, ranch, hot sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder in a pan, whisking until smooth. Remove from heat.
2. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, mix shredded chicken, mozzarella, and cheddar. Pour in the sauce and stir well.
3. Assemble the Dish: Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and top with the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese.
4. Bake the Dip: Bake at 175°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes until the cheese melts and bubbles. Broil for 1-2 minutes for a golden top.

🍽 What to Serve with this Party Dip
- Tortilla Chips: They’re super crispy and the best for scooping up all that creamy goodness.
- Vegetable Sticks: I always go for carrot and celery, they add a fresh crunch and balance the spice.
- Crackers: Simple and perfect for dipping without taking away from the flavor of the dip.
- Pita Chips: These are crunchy and sturdy, so they hold up really well with that cheesy dip.

💭Tips for Recipe Success
Adjust the Spice: I always tweak the hot sauce based on how spicy I want it. More for heat, less if I want it milder.
Don’t Overcook: I make sure to keep an eye on it while baking. I want the cheese to melt and bubble, but not burn. Broiling for a minute or two gives it a nice golden top.
Make It Ahead: Sometimes I prep it the night before and just pop it in the oven when I’m ready. So easy!
Add Extra Cheese: I’m all about that extra cheese, more mozzarella or cheddar makes it even gooier and delicious.
Storage: I let the dip cool, then store it in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days. When I’m ready to eat, I reheat it in the microwave or bake it at 350°F (175°C). If there's extra, I freeze it for later!
