Dip Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 cup cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Garlic Bread Chips
- 1 loaf of French bread
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 2 cloves garlic, minced (for bread)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to get it ready for baking the dip and bread chips.
- Mix Dip Ingredients: In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the cooked shredded chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, grated parmesan, mozzarella, chopped green onions, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until smooth and evenly mixed.
- Transfer to Baking Dish: Spread the chicken and cheese mixture evenly into a baking dish suitable for the oven.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the minced garlic to create a flavorful garlic butter spread for the bread.
- Slice Bread Chips: Slice the French bread loaf into thin chip-sized pieces and brush each slice generously with the garlic butter mixture on both sides.
- Bake Bread Chips: Arrange the bread chips in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are crisp and golden brown.
- Bake the Dip: Place the baking dish with the dip in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the top has turned golden.
- Serve Warm: Remove both the dip and bread chips from the oven and serve the warm creamy chicken Alfredo dip alongside the crispy garlic bread chips for dipping.
Notes
- The dip can be made ahead and refrigerated, then baked right before serving to save time.
- Use freshly cooked chicken or leftover rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dip mixture.
- To keep the bread chips crispy, let them cool on a wire rack after baking.
- Substitute French bread with a baguette or sourdough for different flavors.
