Ingredients

8 oz cream cheese
½ cup mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann’s or Duke’s
½ cup hot sauce, preferably Frank’s RedHot Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups shredded cooked chicken, from 1 rotisserie chicken
2 cups shredded Pepper Jack cheese, divided

US Customary - Metric

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large bowl, warm the cream cheese in the microwave until softened, about 45 seconds. Add the mayonnaise, hot sauce, and garlic and whisk until combined. Stir in the chicken, 1½ cups (180 g) of the Pepper Jack, 6 tablespoons of the blue cheese (if using), and the scallions. Transfer the mixture into a 1½-qt (1.5-L) baking dish and sprinkle the remaining pepper jack and 2 tablespoons of blue cheese over top.
Bake the dip for about 20 minutes, until bubbling. Turn on the broiler and broil 6 inches (15 cm) from the heat until lightly browned on top, a few minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes, then sprinkle with scallions and serve warm with tortilla chips, carrots, and celery sticks.

Notes

Make-Ahead Instructions: The dip can be prepared and refrigerated up to one day ahead of time. Allow a few extra minutes in the oven if baking from cold.
