Ingredients
Scale

- 2 stalks green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each, until the mixture is smooth and creamy (about 1-2 minutes total).
- Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken and Monterey Jack cheese until the chicken is evenly coated.
- Spread the mixture evenly into a 9×9 inch baking dish.

- Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with blue cheese crumbles and sliced green onions.
- Serve immediately with sturdy tortilla chips.
Notes
Use full-fat block cream cheese, not spreadable tub cream cheese, to avoid a watery dip. Soften the cream cheese thoroughly before mixing. Add blue cheese on top after baking to maintain texture and distinct flavor. If the dip is too thick, add a splash of milk or extra ranch. If too thin, bake longer or add more cream cheese.
