Chicken Parmesan Dip

David Venable

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Serves: 8

Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 cups mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese
  • 1 pound of cooked chicken
  • 2 cups marinara sauce
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Add the softened cream cheese to a large bowl along with the mozzarella, reserving about 1/3 cup, and parmesan, reserving about 1 tablespoon. Mix well to combine before adding in the chicken and marinara sauce. Mix well.

Spread the dip mixture into a medium casserole dish or cast-iron skillet and top with the reserved cheeses. In a separate bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs and olive oil to combine.

Sprinkle all over the dip. Place into the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until hot and bubbling.

Optionally, you can broil the dip on high for an extra crispy top.

Let cool for at least 10 minutes before enjoying with crostini or crudité.
