Remove the smoked tuna from its packaging, ensuring any skin or bones are removed, and flake it into small pieces using a fork.
In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese. Allow it to soften slightly at room temperature for easier mixing.
Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice to the bowl. Mix with a hand mixer or spatula until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Fold in the flaked smoked tuna, chopped green onions, and fresh dill. Mix until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings, adding more salt, pepper, or lemon juice as needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl. For best flavor, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve the smoked tuna dip chilled with crackers, sliced vegetables, or toasted bread. Enjoy!
