BBQ Chicken Dip Recipe
Description
The recipe starts by roasting seasoned chicken breasts until cooked and cool enough to chop. The chicken is mixed with cream cheese, the majority of the BBQ sauce, ranch dressing, sour cream, half of the shredded cheddar cheese, and some green onions.
This mixture is spread into a baking dish, topped with remaining BBQ sauce and cheese, then baked until the cheese melts and the dip bubbles at the edges. The green onions garnish the dip once baked.
This creamy dip balances smoky BBQ flavor with tangy ranch and sour cream. The cheddar adds richness and melts to a golden top. It suits serving with chips, crackers, or vegetables for dipping at gatherings.
Store any leftovers refrigerated in an airtight container for up to three days, reheating gently before serving again.
Ingredients
- 2 chicken breast boneless, skinless
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- 8 ounces cream cheese room temperature (1 brick)
- 1 cup BBQ sauce divided
- ½ cup ranch dressing
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1½ cups cheddar cheese divided, freshly shredded
- 2 green onions chopped and divided
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425℉. Rub the chicken breasts with oil, salt, and pepper. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 18-25 minutes, or until the thickest part of the breast reads 165℉ on a thermometer. Set aside to cool to touch, then chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Lower the oven temperature to 350℉. In a bowl, stir together the cream cheese, ¾ cup of BBQ sauce, ranch dressing, sour cream, half of the cheese, and half of the green onion with the chicken pieces.
- Spoon into an 8x8-inch baking dish, smoothing out the top. Top with the remaining ¼ cup of BBQ sauce, and sprinkle on the remaining cheese. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the cheese is melted and the dip is bubbling around the edges.
- Garnish with the remaining green onions and enjoy!
Notes
- Store leftover dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently before serving to maintain creamy texture and melted cheese.
