Jalapeno Popper Dip with Chicken

35 mins

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened  
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheese + extra for on top (we used a mix of Monterrey jack and cheddar, but just cheddar is fine too!)  
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled (extra for topping)
  • 1/2 cup shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1/2 cup chopped jalapeno peppers (adjust to taste)
  • Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste

Cooking Guide

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F 
  2. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, combine cream cheese and sour cream with a hand mixer 
  3. Add In: Mix in cheddar cheese (about ¾ so you have some to put on top for baking), bacon, shredded chicken, jalapenos, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined..
  4. Transfer: Pour the mixture into a greased, oven safe dish. Cover with remaining shredded cheese
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until bubbly and heated through.
  6. Serve: Serve hot with tortilla chips, crackers, or your favorite dippers.

Tips & Variations:

  • Spice it up: Add more jalapenos or a pinch of cayenne pepper for extra heat.
  • Add Chiles: You can add diced chiles for more flavor (or swap them for the jalapenos)
  • Creamy Tips: Swap the sour cream for mayo or Greek yogurt to the dip for a richer, creamier texture.
