Equipment

1 Instant Pot

Ingredients

1.5 lbs chicken boneless skinless breasts or thighs, medium size, cut in half lengthwise
1 block cream cheese softened / room temperature, cut into large chunks
1/2 large onion diced
1 package ranch dressing mix dry, 1 ounce
5 slices bacon diced, precooked
2 cup cheddar cheese shredded
1/2 cup chicken broth

Instructions

Add medium chicken breasts or thighs that have been cut in half lengthwise, add cream cheese cut into smaller chunks, ranch dressing dry mix, diced onions and broth into pot.
Put on the lid and close steam valve. Set to high for 15 minutes followed by a quick release. (if using precooked meat set to 5 minutes) Then shred chicken and stir so cream cheese becomes smooth and chicken is coated. Turn pot off.
Stir in shredded cheese, it will melt quickly. Stir in precooked chopped bacon at this time.
Keep in mind this thickens A LOT when it cools so you may not want to add anything. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes to allow thickening. Transfer to serving bowl with chips or baguette sliced pieces.

Notes

How to Thicken Dip

If you want it thicker set to saute low and you can whisk together 1 tsp of cornstarch with 2 tsp cold water until smooth and dump that in. Allow to bubble for 1 minute, then turn off or remove from heat. This will continue to thicken as it cools.
