- ½ cup Franks Red Hot Sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheese- cheddar Monterey Jack, blue cheese crumbles
- 1 ½ teaspoon garlic salt

- Soften and cut the cream cheese into cubes, which can be done by cutting it into cubes and microwaving the cream cheese for 15-20 seconds.
Slow Cooker
- Add the cooked shredded chicken, the cream cheese cubes, sour cream, Franks red hot sauce, shredded cheese, and garlic salt to a medium-sized crock-pot. Stir until all of the ingredients are combined.
- Cook it on low for 1-2 hours until heated through and bubbly.
Stovetop
- If you're making it on the stovetop, add 2 teaspoon of olive oil to a medium-sized saucepan or skillet on the stovetop over medium heat.
- And the dip ingredients, stir, turn the heat down to medium-low and cook for 7-10 minutes until heated through.
- Remove from the pot and put it into a dip serving dish. As a garnish, you can add sliced green onions and/or blue cheese crumbles. Blue cheese and Frank's red hot go hand in hand, but not everyone is a blue cheese fan. Feel free to skip it if that's you!

Notes
Any kind of precooked chicken will work whether it's shredded rotisserie chicken, baked chicken breasts or tenders, or boiled chicken. Canned chicken works too but is more finely shredded so you might not need to add as much. Using rotisserie chicken will make the recipe saltier, so please cut back on added salt.
Garnish with blue cheese crumbles and Franks Red Hot Sauce, if desired
To shred the cooked chicken you can use two forks, meat claws, or a hand mixer or stand mixer.
