In a medium bowl, combine the sour cream and mayonnaise. Whisk until the mixture is completely smooth and no lumps remain. This creates a creamy base for the dip.
Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl. Stir thoroughly until all seasonings are evenly incorporated.
Gently fold in the crumbled blue cheese. To maintain a chunky texture, be careful not to overmix or crush the crumbles.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This crucial step allows the flavors to meld and deepen, resulting in a much tastier dip. For best results, chill for 2-4 hours.
Before serving, give the dip a final gentle stir. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with freshly chopped chives and serve chilled.
