Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken (rotisserie, poached, or leftover roast)
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain; full-fat for richness)
- 1 cup salsa (mild or medium, drained a little if very watery)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 1 packet taco seasoning (about 1 oz)
- Optional toppings: Chopped green onions, Diced tomatoes, Sliced jalapeños
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a small baking dish (about 8×8 inches or similar).
- In a large bowl, soften the cream cheese with a spatula until smooth. Add the Greek yogurt and mix until combined.
- Stir in shredded chicken, salsa, shredded cheese, and taco seasoning. Mix thoroughly so the seasoning is evenly distributed.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbling at the edges and the cheese is melted.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with optional toppings for flavor.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced vegetables.
Notes
For a creamier texture, fold in an extra 1/4 cup cheese or a splash of milk. Greek yogurt can be swapped for sour cream (1:1).
