Follow these simple steps to make your Cheesy Dynamite Chicken Buns:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, shredded cheese, cream cheese, green onions, mayonnaise, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
