Can also be made without chicken as an 8-layer dip, or omit bacon, too, for vegetarian. Serve with tortilla chips. A clear 8x8 pan is good for this.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 ½ tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 slices lean bacon, chopped
1 (16 ounce) can refried beans
1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix
1 cup sour cream
¾ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup prepared guacamole
1 cup diced tomatoes
1 ½ tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons sliced black olives
2 tablespoons finely sliced green onions
¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Place the chicken, 1 1/2 tablespoons of cilantro, and vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat, and pan-fry the chicken breasts until lightly golden brown, no longer pink in the middle, and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set aside. When cooled, cut into cubes.
  • Place the bacon in the same skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Mix the refried beans into the skillet with the bacon, and cook, stirring frequently, until the beans are hot and bubbling, 5 to 10 minutes. Mix the taco seasoning and sour cream together in a bowl.
  • To assemble, spread the hot bean and bacon mixture into the bottom of an 8x8-inch glass dish. Sprinkle the chicken cubes over the bean mixture, then follow with these layers: 3/4 cup of Cheddar cheese, guacamole, sour cream mixture, and sliced tomatoes. Sprinkle the top with 1 1/2 tablespoons of cilantro, black olives, green onions, and 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.

9-LAYER MEXICAN DIP



9-Layer Mexican Dip image

While many incarnations exist, I have tailored my recipe to meet my dietary needs (food allergies/migraines). This dip uses lower fat and natural ingredients and is vegetarian-friendly, too. Feel free to modify to suit your tastes. That's what cooking (or in this case layering) is all about!

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 15-20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 (16 ounce) cans refried black beans (I like La Preferida 99% Fat-Free)
1 (16 ounce) jar all-natural salsa (I prefer Frog Ranch Chipotle)
32 ounces all-natural sour cream (I like Daisy)
12 ounces all-natural guacamole (I like Calavo)
3 cups lettuce, shredded
2 beefsteak tomatoes, coarsely chopped
2 cups finely shredded cheddar cheese
8 ounces black olives, sliced
6 ounces green pimento stuffed olives, sliced
2 -4 green onions, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • In large mixing bowl, combine refried beans and salsa. Consistency should be that of cake frosting--spreadable but not thick. Adjust amount of salsa accordingly.
  • Spread bean and salsa mixture onto serving platter. (I use the back of a metal serving spoon.).
  • Layer remaining ingredients.
  • Serve with Baked Tostitos Scoops Tortilla Chips.
  • NOTES: Also great as a meal. Even my green-veggie-phobic children devour this dish! This recipe is moderately spicy. Change the heat of the salsa to adjust. You could also top with jalapenos or other hot peppers to add more heat. I sometimes use different greens (prepackaged salad mixes) instead of iceberg lettuce and use different cheeses (pepperjack kicks it up a few notches!).

LAYERED AVOCADO BEAN DIP



Layered Avocado Bean Dip image

I grew up in Northern California, and I miss the flavors from home all the time. I made up this dip to combine some of my favorite things like avocados, artichokes, and almonds and it's a big favorite at parties! Sourdough bread is another California favorite for serving, but it works really well with pita chips or even just normal tortilla chips, too. —Elisabeth Larsen, Pleasant Grove, Utah
