  • Total Time: 28 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons oil
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened and cubed
  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • ¼ cup hot honey (plus more for drizzling)
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt (plus more to taste)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F to prepare for baking the dip until perfectly bubbly and melted.
  2. Mix Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, chopped green onions, shredded cooked chicken, and shredded Monterey Jack cheese. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
  3. Add Seasonings: Stir in the hot honey, garlic powder, and salt. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors. Taste and add a little more salt if needed to balance the sweet and spicy flavors.
  4. Prepare Dish: Pour the oil into a cast iron skillet or an 8×8 baking dish and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. This helps prevent sticking and adds a slight crispness to the edges.
  5. Assemble Dip: Pour the prepared chicken and cheese mixture into the skillet or baking dish, spreading it evenly. Top the dip with the shredded cheddar cheese to create a melty, golden crust.
  6. Bake the Dip: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 16-18 minutes until the dip is hot, gooey, bubbling around the edges, and the cheese topping is melted and slightly browned.
  7. Cool and Serve: Remove the dip from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes to set slightly. Drizzle additional hot honey over the top before serving if desired, then serve warm with your favorite chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.

Notes

  • If you prefer a spicier dip, increase the amount of hot honey or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • This dip can be made ahead and refrigerated; bake just before serving.
  • Substitute cooked rotisserie chicken for convenience.
  • Use a baking dish of similar size if a cast iron skillet is not available.
  • Serve with tortilla chips, pita bread, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
