Ingredients

  • 1 8 oz container chive and onion cream cheese softened
  • 1 8 oz sour cream
  • 1 cup real mayonnaise
  • 1 1.0 oz package dry Ranch dressing mix
  • few dashes hot sauce optional
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese divided
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped rotisserie chicken
  • 1/2 lb bacon cooked and crumbled
  • 1 4 oz can chopped green chilies well drained
  • 2 Tbsp fresh chives plus additional for garnishing

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 10 inch cast iron skillet or similar size baking dish with oil. Set aside. (If using a baking dish, you may spritz with cooking spray.)
  • In a medium-size mixing bowl using an electric mixer whip together cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, Ranch seasoning and a few dashes of hot sauce. Whip until fully combined and smooth.
  • To the bowl add 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese, chicken, bacon, green chilies and chives. Mix by hand until ingredients are evenly distributed. Reserve a small amount of bacon and chives for garnishing.
  • Spread evenly into the skillet (or baking dish) and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup shredded cheese.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes until bubbly around the edges and the cheese is lightly golden.
  • Garnish with reserved bacon and chives then serve immediately with crostini, pita chips, tortilla chips or vegetables for dipping.
