For best results, use high-quality cheeses for maximum flavor.
Don't overmix the chicken mixture; gently combine to prevent a rubbery texture.
If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the mixture to a baking dish before topping with bread crumbs and cheese.
Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preferred level of spiciness.
For a smoother dip, you can blend the ricotta cheese in a food processor before adding it to the other ingredients.
