Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Add room temperature cream cheese to a mixing bowl. If not room temperature, microwave for 20-30 seconds to soften.

Add 2 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken to the bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of sour cream to the mixture.

Pour in 3 ounces of Frank's RedHot sauce.

Add 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (or half mozzarella, half pepper Jack).

Mix in ranch powder to the bowl.

Add 1/4 cup of chopped green onions to the mixture.

Stir in 1/4 cup of blue cheese crumbles and mix everything together.

In a separate bowl, crush about 1 cup of Ritz crackers.

Add 1/4 cup of melted butter to the crushed crackers.

Mix in 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese with the cracker mixture until slightly moist.

Grease a baking dish (9x9 or 8x8) with non-stick cooking spray.

Spread the chicken dip mixture evenly in the bottom of the greased baking dish.

Sprinkle the cracker topping evenly over the dip mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden brown.

Remove from oven and top with homemade or pre-made bacon bits and additional blue cheese crumbles.

Garnish with fresh parsley or additional green onions before serving.
