Nashville Hot Chicken Dip
Ingredients
1 (8-oz.) block cream cheese, softened
2 c. shredded mozzarella, divided
1/3 c. mayonnaise
1/3 c. sour cream
2 green onions, thinly sliced, plus more for
garnish
2 tbsp. hot sauce (such as Cholula)
1 tbsp. cayenne
2 tsp. packed brown sugar
2 tsp. paprika
1 tsp. garlic powder
Kosher salt
12 oz. fresh or frozen breaded chicken, prepared
and cubed
8 slices white bread
3 tbsp. melted butter
1/3 c. pickle chips, for garnish
Directions
Step 1 Make dip: Preheat oven to 375°. In a large
bowl, combine cream cheese, 1¾ cup mozzarella, mayo, sour cream, green onions,
hot sauce, cayenne, brown sugar, paprika, and garlic powder.
Season with salt. Gently fold in almost all of the cooked chicken,
reserving about 1/4 cup for topping. Fold until just combined.
Step 2 Transfer dip to a medium baking dish or skillet
and top with remaining cheese. Add the rest of the chicken to the center of the
dip and bake until bubbly and slightly golden, 25 to 30 minutes.
Step 3 Meanwhile, make toasts: Brush each slice of
bread on one side with melted butter and season with salt. Cut each slice of
bread into quarters diagonally and place on a medium baking sheet. Bake until
slightly golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
Step 4 When dip is ready, garnish with green onions and
pickles and serve with prepared toasts.
