I’m not a huge fan of Awesome Chicken as a meal in itself… so I decided to add some beans and sour cream and made an appetizer dip! Kind of like a nacho dip – but better!
This is apart of a tailgating series I’m doing since we can’t physically be at a tailgate this year (due to COVID-19), then we might as well enjoy watching the games and making fun tailgate food!
This appetizer dip is so tasty you will be trying to find a reason to make it each and every week. I know I’ve said it before, but you will love his recipe so much because it uses pantry staples and comes together in minutes.
Think about it like this: stock up on these staples and whenever you have a friend pop over – you have a quick and easy appetizer dip ready in minutes to serve them! Oh, and it has chicken in it – so it’s technically a meal right?
