Ingredients

1 pound bacon, cooked crispy and crumbled

2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cooked and shredded

8 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup sour cream

4 ounces canned diced green chiles, drained

4-6 medium jalapeños, seeded and diced (or more for extra heat)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or green onions, for garnish (optional)

Method

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, diced green chiles, diced jalapeños, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.

Stir in the cooked shredded chicken, half of the crumbled bacon, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese into the cream cheese mixture.

Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden.

Remove from oven and sprinkle with the remaining crumbled bacon and fresh chives or green onions, if using.

Let stand for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow it to set slightly.
