Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • 6 strips turkey bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 0.5 cup sour cream
  • 2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 0.25 cup butter, melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, cottage cheese, and sour cream until smooth.
  3. Fold the shredded chicken and half of the crumbled turkey bacon into the cream mixture.
  4. Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  5. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and the remaining turkey bacon over the top.
  6. In a small bowl, combine the crushed crackers with melted butter until they resemble wet sand.
  7. Distribute the cracker topping uniformly over the cheese layer.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the edges are bubbling and the topping is golden brown.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken to save significant time. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to room temperature for a smooth sauce. This dish stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days if covered tightly.
