3.) Once brought back to a boil, remove from the heat, cover with a lid, and allow the chicken to continue to poach for approximately 30 mins.
4.) Remove and allow chicken to cool then shred.
5.) In a large sauce pan combine cream cheese, hot sauce, ranch dressing, pepper, garlic, and cayenne while slowly heating and whisking constantly.
6.) Once cream cheese is completely dissolved, remove from heat.
7.) Add in the shredded chicken, 2 cups mozzarella, and 2 cups of cheddar then mix well.
8.) Pour entire contents into a greased cooking tray like Pyrex. And top with the remaining cheddar and mozzarella.
9.) Cover with foil and place in oven for approximately 15 mins.
10.) Remove foil and allow to cook for another 15 mins., or until the top begins to brown.
11.) Remove and serve immediately (careful, it gets hot!) with either crostini, chips, crackers, veggie sticks or anything you love to dip with.
Buon Appetito!
