    In an 7x11-inch ceramic baking dish, add the shredded chicken, homemade mayo, Frank’s RedHot sauce, ranch seasoning ,water, and dairy-free shredded cheese.
    Mix until everything is evenly combined.
  • Step 4: Bake

  • Step 5: Cool and Serve
    Let the dip cool for 7–8 minutes before serving.
    Serve warm with veggie dippers like cucumber slices, red bell pepper, or alfalfa sprouts.
