Method
 

  1. Gather your ingredients.
  2. Cook the chicken if not already cooked and shred it into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Crumble the cooked bacon into small pieces.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, crumbled bacon, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
