How spicy is the dip?

This is actually what I'd consider a mild dip. There's a kick from the hot sauce, but nothing that will make your eyes start watering. If you want a really spicy dip, you can increase the hot sauce. Just keep in mind the more liquid you add the runnier the dip could become.

What type of chicken can I use?

The absolute easiest way to make this dip is to use rotisserie chicken. If you really want, you can cook and shred your own chicken breast, but the rotisserie is so easy and has so much moist flavor. I don't recommend changing this part of the recipe.

Short answer: yes. Longer answer: the dip is definitely best fresh, right out of the oven. After it's been in the fridge it will loose some of the creaminess if you try to reheat it. The flavors are still delicious, but the texture will change a little.

Do I have to buy the rotisserie chicken the same day?

Nope! Again, fresh is best but I've bought the chicken up to 2 days before and kept it in the fridge. I wouldn't keep it longer than that, but it does add to the convenience of the recipe that you can pick this up a day or two before.
