Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
Heat the 1/2 teaspoon avocado oil on medium high heat in a small skillet. Season the chicken breast with salt and pepper, and then sear the chicken on both sides for3 minutes, until golden brown.
Transfer the chicken to the oven and continue cooking until it reaches an internal temperature of 165˚F, around 6 to 8 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the oven, allow to cool, and then shred and place in a large mixing bowl.
Add everything except 1/4 cup of cheddar cheese: 8 ounces of plain cream cheese spread, ½ cup Greek yogurt, ¼ cup hot sauce, 1 teaspoon granulated onion, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, 1 tablespoon freshly sliced green onion, ½ teaspoon freshly chopped parsley, ½ teaspoon freshly chopped dill and ¾ cup shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl and combine.
Place the dip in a covered oven-safe dish, top with the ¼ cup of shredded cheddar and bake for 20 minutes at 350˚F until warmed through. Now turn on the broiler, remove the lid and brown the top of the dip. Depending on your broiler, this could take anywhere from 2-6 minutes.
Serve warm and enjoy with tortilla chips or celery sticks.
