Hot Chicken Philly Cheesesteak Dip
More party dips I love are Buffalo Chicken Dip, Hot Spinach and Artichoke Dip (or a version with added crab!), Taco Dip and easy Guacamole. Check out a full list of Skinny Party Dip ideas.
I have a weakness for Philly Cheesesteak sandwiches, so when my sister-in-law brought this philly cheesesteak dip to my Mom’s on Christmas, I couldn’t stop thinking about it for days – it was that good! I needed to figure out a way to make this lighter so I played around with it and came up with a solution, worthy to bring to any party!
I replaced the steak with chicken, cut the cream cheese in half and used light instead, and replaced the rest with light sour cream (I tried it with Greek yogurt but didn’t taste as good). The final result was DELICIOUS! 🙂
For dipping I bought a whole wheat baguette, sliced it thin and toasted it but bagel thins, pretzel thins, tortilla chips or even crudites would work! This can be made one day in advance and stored in the refrigerator before baking.

Can I freeze this?
Happy Thanksgiving Gina,
This is a very tasty recipe. I will be making again. We started Thanksgiving early this year and I used 8oz left over cooked smoked turkey (Butterball from Walmart) instead of the chicken. It was very quick since the turkey was already cooked. I had mine with celery and the rest of the family with tortilla chips. Served it as the main course and my family loved it. Be safe and have a good holiday with your family
So glad everyone enjoyed it! Thank you and the same to your family!!
Gina,
Could I use Greek yogurt for the mayo and sour cream?
In her explanation about the recipe she said she tried it with Greek yogurt but it wasn’t as good.
What is the serving size for the chicken cheese steak dip?
Was not a fan. This should not be marked as Keto. Seemed too sour to me. My husband would barely eat it.
Made this on Sunday for Super Bowl and was a hit! And my team won!
Thank you Gina 🙂
I just calculated this to put into the App and it says 4 Freestyle points for the 1/4 cup. Not 2 FP.
Hi Colby. The only accurate way to determine any recipe’s SmartPoints® value is to plug the ingredients into the recipe builder on the Weight Watchers website (Click on “My Foods,” select “Recipe,” and click “Create a recipe.”) which does not count fruits and vegetables in recipes in the calculations as they are now 0 points.
The SmartPoints® calculator isn’t meant for recipes and will often give you the wrong points (usually higher) because it’s counting the fruits and vegetables. So if you see a recipe with a SmartPoints® value that’s different from what the calculator tells you, now you know why.
Hello.
Where I live I only found provolone dolce,can I use that?
This was absolutely delicious and perfect to share with friends. Everyone raved about it. Will definitely make this again!
Has anyone added mushrooms? Wonder if pepper, onion, mushroom combo would work?
Just made this for a super bowl party tomorrow! Thank you for this perfect dip to bring to a PHILADELPHIA EAGLES SUPER BOWL!!!! Go Eagles! Can’t wait to try it. Be cause I had to make it today for time sake, I did everything up to the baking part, have it all mixed up in the fridge and will put in a crock pot tomorrow!
I am planning on doing the same thing! How many hours are you putting it I. Your crockpot? Are you putting it on low?
My husband made this for New Year’s Day, and it was gone in minutes! So delicious. He’s making it again for the Super Bowl and we are doubling the recipe, it is a hit.
I know it’s obviously not healthier but can you substitute steak for chicken?
Sure
I just made this for the third time in 3 weeks (there’s been a love of football games/parties, go eagles!) for my work Super Bowl party and have received SO many compliments on it. 3 people have already asked me for the recipe and we’re still eating!
I made this just like the recipe, and omitted the green peppers, then used it as a filling for stuffed peppers. Y’ALL! It was so good! Thanks so much for this recipe, it’s amazing!
I really dislike mayo (even in recipes like this), but this sounds amazing! Any suggestions for substitutions without compromising taste? I absolutely love all of the other ingredients so I was hoping you can give me another option! Thanks so much!
I’m also not a fan of mayo and can’t actually have it right now due to eggs but was thinking of making this. My thought was just a little extra sour cream instead? But I’d love an idea from someone who knows more!
Hi Gina,
love your recipes!! I wanted to know if you think the flavor would be affected if I prepped everything up to step 5 (combine all ingredients in a bowl), refrigerated it overnight and then tossed it in a crock pot the next day? Thanks!
I think it would be great!
