A Chicken Burrito...In a Party Dip!





LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
For this Super Bowl, even though it's in the north let's go South...by Southwest. We present the flavors of the southwest, brought out beautifully in a dip!  Dana Bowen, who's the Executive Editor for Every Day With Rachael Ray told Tonia's Kitchen about a recipe for Chicken Burrito Dip. Dana told Tonia you don't even have to cook chicken, just use shredded rotisserie chicken and cook it all in a cast iron skillet. That transfers heat more efficiently and, as a result, the cheese will stay as hot as the valley floor in Phoenix!  It's a true taste of the southwest.
Ingredients
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1 1/2 cups canned black beans, rinsed
  • 1 cup frozen fire-roasted or regular corn, thawed and drained
  • 1 cup red enchilada sauce
  • 1 medium canned chipotle in adobo, chopped, plus 1 tbsp. adobo sauce
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 3 cups shredded Monterey jack cheese
  • Sour cream and chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • Corn chips, for dipping



Directions
  1. Preheat the broiler. Heat a medium cast-iron skillet over medium. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, until the onion is charred in spots, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chicken, beans, corn, enchilada sauce, chipotle and adobo sauce, cumin and half the cheese. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer; remove from the heat.
  2. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Broil until brown and bubbly, 3 to 5 minutes. Garnish with the sour cream and cilantro. Serve with the corn chips.
