The next time you go to a friend’s house, offer to bring an appetizer and make this Cheesy Chicken Dip! Warm dips are always a crowd pleaser, and this one is no exception.
I love serving sliced sweet baby bell peppers for dipping, or – even though they aren’t technically real food approved – tortilla chips would be a fabulous dipper as well. Let me know how it goes in the comments!

Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
This was a hug hit! We loved the bell pepper strips idea for dipping. The dip was delicious. We used only one teaspoon of chili powder and that was just right for our kids’ palates and still very tasty.
Glad to hear everyone enjoyed it! – Nicole
Ah! My dip just seems watery and is not browning on top. Any tips? Thank you!
Did you drain the chicken before using?
The dip is delicious! Is it freezable?
Hi Amy, yes it it. – Nicole
very delicious cheesy recipe..i m loving it..
Has anyone tried making this in a Crockpot? I want to bring it to a potluck at work, but wondering if hating it in the Crockpot would work instead of an oven.
You could certainly transport and keep it heated in a crock pot but we have not made it in one.
