If Sundays at your house are reserved for football like they are at mine, this dip is sure to be a touchdown hit for the whole crowd. Packed with cheesy goodness and spicy chicken, this recipe will have you scraping the edges to get every last bite. I like to tone the heat up with some heavy-handed shakes of hot sauce-my favorite is Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce for a light smoky flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter

  • 1 tsp minced garlic

  • 4 boneless chicken thighs

  • 1/4 cup sour cream

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper

  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

  • 1/4 tsp paprika

  • 8 ounces (1 package) cream cheese, at room temperature

  • 1/2 cup hot sauce, additional as needed

  • 1/2 cup Ranch Dressing, or purchased bottled dressing

  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Directions

  • Preheat the oven 450°F.
  • Heat a large skillet with cover over medium-high. Add the butter and melt.
  • Add the garlic and chicken to the skillet. Cook for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium. Turn the chicken so it cooks on all sides, cooking for 12 to 15 minutes total.
  • With a meat thermometer, check the chicken for doneness. It should reach 165°F. When cooked, remove the chicken to a large bowl. Set aside to cool.
  • Shred the cooled chicken into bite-size pieces.
  • Add the sour cream, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and paprika to the shredded chicken. Mix well.
  • In a 9-inch-square pan, spread the cream cheese over the bottom and up the sides, coating evenly. Pour the chicken mixture over the cream cheese layer.
  • Drizzle the hot sauce and Ranch Dressing over the chicken mixture, distributing evenly.
  • Top with the mozzarella and Cheddar cheeses.
  • Using a butter knife, swirl the ingredients together in the pan.
  • Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the top layer is browned and bubbling.
  • Remove the pan from the oven. Cool the dip for 5 minutes before serving.
