Recipe Notes

• Sometimes I bake mine in individual ramekins if it is just a few of us so everyone can have their own. (Though I encourage sharing!)

• Add some minced jalapeno for a little more heat.

• Try this recipe with shredded pork instead of chicken. 

Here’s how to make it:

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, cube cream cheese and add taco seasoning. Cover and microwave for 60 seconds.
2. Mix half of the green onions and cilantro with the cream cheese. (Reserve the other half for garnish.)
3. Add 4 ounces of shredded cheese, the red pepper and sour cream. Mix well.
4. Place chicken in an oven-safe dish and add cheese mixture, spreading evenly. Top with the remaining 4 ounces of shredded cheese.
5. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated 450-degree F oven for 13 to 15 minutes. Garnish and serve with tortilla chips or fresh veggies.
