Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 4 oz can Diced green chilies
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 0.5 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Ground black pepper
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Stir in the shredded chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, and diced green chilies. Mix until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into an oven-safe baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges.
If desired, switch the oven to broil for the last 2-3 minutes to achieve a golden, bubbly cheese layer on top. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if using.
Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or veggie sticks.
