Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a medium bowl, add chicken, cream cheese, bleu cheese, Greek yogurt, buffalo sauce, ranch seasoning, and half (¼ cup) of the shredded cheese and mix together completely.
Pour into a greased baking dish. I used a shallow, 9-inch pie dish, an 8x8 or 9x9 inch pan or something similar will work great. Smooth the chicken dip so it’s evenly spread in the dish.
Top the dip with the remaining shredded cheese.Bake for 20 minutes until hot and the cheese is melted. (See notes for alternative cooking instructions) Garnish with sliced green onions. Serve warm with chips, toasted baguette, crackers, celery, carrots, etc.
