Notes
- Additions like chopped tomato, bacon, chives, black olives, or sun-dried tomatoes can enhance flavor.
- For a layered presentation, mix chicken with hot sauce and put it in the dish first, spread softened cream cheese mixed with ranch powder on top, then add cheese before baking.
- To prepare for larger groups, this dip can be made in a crockpot over 6 hours on low heat.
- Substitute low-fat, vegan, or olive oil mayonnaise if preferred.
- You can use canned drained chicken or cooked shredded chicken breasts as alternatives to rotisserie chicken.
- Blue cheese crumbles may be added along with ranch dressing powder for a different flavor.
- Try sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese to vary the cheese flavor.
