Ok, this is a super quick Smoked Nashville Hot Chicken Dip that you can either toss on your smoker or in your oven – either way it is addicting and so easy. Here’s the kicker…we used rotisserie chicken, BUT you could get even more NVHC literal with it and use breaded chicken either from the hot case at the grocery store or frozen popcorn chicken. Try this version though, because it was delish! The spicy pickle crema adds that sumpin sumpin that really makes this dip. This will be an easy go to for tailgating season or when you need a quick dip recipe to feed your hungry peeps.
