Italian Chicken Dip image

This scrumptious dip is creamy and hearty. The Italian seasonings mixed with the tangy dressing is soaked up by the chicken and makes this dip delicious. The cream cheese and mozzarella cheese melted together with the chicken is really what pulls this dip together. Set this hot dip out with some tortilla chips or even crusty...
