Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup milk
  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella, divided
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan
  • 1 ½ cups shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Make the Roux: Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Whisk in flour and cook for about 1 minute to form a roux.
  3. Add Garlic and Milk: Stir in the minced garlic, then slowly whisk in the milk until the mixture becomes smooth and slightly thickened.
  4. Incorporate Cream Cheese: Lower the heat and add cream cheese. Stir until melted and creamy.
  5. Add Cheeses and Chicken: Mix in 1 cup mozzarella, parmesan, shredded chicken, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir until fully combined.
  6. Transfer and Top: Spoon the mixture into your prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of mozzarella evenly over the top.
  7. Bake: Place in the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Serve: Enjoy warm with crostini, crackers, or fresh veggies like broccoli and carrots.

Notes

    • Serving: This creamy chicken Alfredo dip is best served warm, straight out of the oven when it’s gooey and bubbly. Pair it with crostini, breadsticks, crackers, pita chips, or fresh veggies like broccoli, carrots, and celery.
    • Make-Ahead Option: You can prepare the dip mixture up to a day in advance. Store it in the refrigerator, covered tightly, and bake just before serving.
    • Reheating: To reheat, bake in the oven at 350°F for 10–15 minutes or microwave in 30-second intervals until hot and creamy again.
    • Storage: Allow leftovers to cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
    • Freezing: You can freeze the unbaked dip for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the fridge and bake as directed.
