Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottom pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Season the chicken lightly with salt and black pepper and add the cubed chicken breasts and sausage to the pot. Cook until the chicken is lightly browned, about 4-5 minutes.

Step 4

Add the chopped onion and bell peppers and cook until veggies are softened and chicken is cooked through, about 4-5 more minutes.

Step 5

Add the cream cheese and sour cream to the pot and cook until cream cheese is melted and creamy, stirring constantly, about 2-3 minutes. Season the dip with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Add cheeses and hot sauce and cook while stirring until the cheese is melted.

Step 6

Transfer the dip to a lightly greased 12-inch cast-iron skillet or 9x13 baking dish. Bake dip in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbly.

Step 7

Allow dip to cool for about 10 minutes and garnish with sliced scallions if preferred. Serve dip with tortilla chips and crackers for dipping!
