Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken thighs boneless, skinless
- 1 tbsp BBQ rub
- 8 slices bacon crumbled
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 2 cups cheddar cheese hand-shredded
- 1/2 cup Ranch dressing
- 3 green onions sliced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2 egga beaten
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
Instructions
- Season chicken with BBQ rub and let stand for 15 minutes
- Cook bacon over medium heat. Remove, crumble, and drain excess grease.
- Cook chicken in the reserved bacon grease, cooking 6-8 minutes per side. Rest for 5 minutes, then chop into pieces.
- In a small cast iron pan, combine chicken, bacon, cream cheese, 1½ cups cheddar, ranch dressing, and green onions. Sprinkle with remaining cheddar cheese.
- Smoke the dip at 350F for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
- Serve warm with dippers of choice.
Notes
- Cook the chicken in the bacon grease. This is a great way to add extra flavor to the chicken.
- Grate your own cheese. Try to grate your cheese instead of using the pre-shredded kind. It tastes much fresher and melts much better.
