Equipment

  • large pot
  • medium saucepot
  • Whisk
  • Baking pan

Ingredients
  

Chicken and Cheese

  • 3 large boneless skinless chicken breasts boiled and shredded
  • 8 ounces cream cheese cubed
  • 1 cup ranch dressing homemade or store-bought
  • 1 cup hot sauce I used Frank's RedHot
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ cup green onion chopped
  • 1.5 cups mozzarella cheese shredded, divided
  • 1.5 cups cheddar cheese shredded, divided

Instructions
 

Cooking Instructions

  • Cook the chicken. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add chicken breasts, and poach covered for approximately 25 minutes. Remove and cool.
  • Prep. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and spray a 9x9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Warm the sauce. In a medium saucepot, add cream cheese, ranch dressing, hot sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder. Whisk until smooth.
  • Combine. Mix in shredded chicken, green onion, 1 cup mozzarella, and 1 cup cheddar into the sauce pot. Transfer to prepared baking pan and top with remaining cheeses.
  • Bake. Bake for 20-30 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbling. Broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  • Serve. Serve with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or use leftovers in a tortilla.

Notes

Chicken takes approximately 30 minutes to cook, and is better prepared ahead of time. Leftovers last 2-3 days, and can be reheated. Can be made in a Crockpot without the bubbly cheese top.
