Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 (8-oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1 (1-oz) package ranch dressing mix
- 1 cup chopped cooked bacon
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 (16-oz) container sour cream
- 2 cups chopped cooked chicken
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (204ºC). Grease a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking and set aside.
- Combine ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese, ranch dressing mix, chopped cooked bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, and chopped cooked chicken. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and evenly combined.
- Transfer and bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Place it in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly around the edges.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with crackers, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks for dipping.
