Description

This creamy, decadent dip is studded with green onions, salty bacon and chunks of tender chicken.

Ingredients

1 1/2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese
1 (1 ounce) envelope ranch dressing mix
1 3/4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
1 1/2 cups sour cream
1 cup cooked and chopped bacon (about 12 slices), plus more for garnish
1/2 cup sliced scallions (from 2 large scallions), plus more for garnish
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 3/4 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided

Directions

1 Gather all ingredients.
2 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3 Place cream cheese and ranch dressing mix in a microwaveable, broiler-safe 9-inch square casserole dish. Microwave on HIGH until combined and cream cheese is very soft, stirring halfway through, about 1 minute.
4 Remove from microwave; stir in chicken, sour cream, bacon, scallions, pepper, and 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Top with remaining 3/4 cup cheddar.
5 Bake in the preheated oven until edges are bubbly, 25 to 30 minutes. Increase oven temperature to broil; cook until cheese is lightly golden brown in spots, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from oven, and sprinkle with additional bacon and scallions.
6 Serve immediately.
