HONEY SRIRACHA CHICKEN DIP — This sweet and spicy chicken dip is made in a skillet on the stove top, then baked until golden and bubbly. A unique and delicious addition to game day, or any celebration!
‘Tis the season for appetizers at my house, and to say my family loved this Honey Sriracha Chicken Dip would be the understatement of the year!
My boys all love spicy foods–anything Buffalo chicken flavored comes to mind–and this sweet and spicy dip is a unique riff on the usual Buffalo chicken style dip.
It’s got chicken (of course), and plenty of melted cheese, but Sriracha sauce replaces the usual hot sauce. And then there’s a bit of honey added for a hint of sweetness.
This is the kind of thing we love eating on New Year’s Eve, or Super Bowl Sunday. It’s a perfect dip for game day get-togethers with friends, and will be a welcome addition to any potluck or party.
I recommend using a supermarket rotisserie chicken to help this dip come together quickly and easily. Those chickens are a staple food at my house! They save so much prep time in the kitchen.
You can serve this dip with all kinds of dippers–toasted baguettes or other crusty bread, crackers, tortilla chips, Fritos and even vegetables. Celery is especially tasty!
If you’d rather, you can throw all the ingredients for this dip into the slow cooker and heat it on low for 4-6 hours. This is especially handy if you’ll be transporting it to a party.
But I do love the skillet method when I’m making it at home. There’s just something fun about pulling a hot bubbling skillet of cheesy dip from the oven.
However you serve it, one thing is for sure, this Honey Sriracha Chicken Dip is going to be hit with everyone!
