- Fold in the shredded rotisserie chicken until evenly distributed
- Transfer to a 2 quart baking dish, casserole, or 12 inch cast iron skillet
- Sprinkle the reserved ¼ Cup of cheddar cheese over the top

- Give it a quick stir, garnish as desired and serve hot with bread (I like sliced and toasted baguette), celery sticks, and/or corn chips

The addition of the sour cream reduces the spice level, adds even more richness, and makes
the dip creamier - If you are one that likes your buffalo wings on the mild side and wants the
dip a bit 'looser' go ahead and add it, otherwise just leave it out, it is up to you
