Equipment
- Casserole Dish
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup sugar-free BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons ranch dressing seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 pounds cooked boneless, skinless chicken breast or thighs cubed or shredded
- 8 slices cooked bacon chopped
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese
- Green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- First, get your oven ready! Preheat it to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
- In a big mixing bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, sugar-free BBQ sauce, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper until it's super smooth and creamy. This is your delicious base!
- Gently fold in your already cooked, cubed chicken and the yummy chopped bacon into the creamy mixture. Make sure everything gets coated with that fantastic creamy sauce.
- Now, stir in half a cup of both shredded cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. It's starting to look wonderfully cheesy!
- Transfer this lovely mixture into a casserole dish, spreading it out evenly. Top it off with the rest of your shredded cheese and a little extra bacon if you wish for that extra crunch.
- Cover your dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and let it bake uncovered for another 6-8 minutes, just until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly.
- For a final touch, you can drizzle with a bit more BBQ sauce and sprinkle with fresh green onions before serving your healthy, heartwarming meal!
