Ingredients
1 lb Smart Chicken Boneless Skinless Breasts
3 Tablespoons butter
3 Tablespoons flour
1½ cups milk
½ cup Smart Chicken Classic Bone Broth
½ teaspoon Kosher salt
Pinch white pepper
1 cup pepper jack cheese, shredded off the block
1 cup sharp cheddar, shredded off the block
1 poblano pepper, small dice
1 tablespoon garlic, finely minced
1 cup white onion, small dice
1 cup tomatoes, small dice
1 jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
Tortilla chips for serving
Directions
Using a pressure cooker, place Smart Chicken boneless skinless breasts in the cooking chamber and cover with water. Secure lid, placing the valve in the sealed position. Select pressure cook and set timer to 10 minutes. Once cooking is complete, do a fast release by immediately releasing the valve. When all the steam has escaped, remove lid and remove chicken. Place chicken on a cutting board and set aside allowing them to cool before shredding. While chicken is cooking, prepare a roux. Using a stockpot or Dutch oven, warm butter over medium heat and add flour. Stir constantly and cook for about 3-5 minutes without letting the roux brown. Next, add milk and Smart Chicken Bone broth while constantly stirring and bring mixture to a rapid simmer. Lower heat and continue to stir until mixture thickens. Add Kosher salt and white pepper and stir. Add cheese and stir until melted. Pour mixture into either a cast iron skillet or roasting pan. Add poblano pepper, garlic, onion, tomatoes and jalapeno slices. Preheat smoker to 175°F. While smoker is preheating, shred the chicken and place in the roasting pan. Place roasting pan or skillet in the smoker and cook for at least 40 minutes, stir and continue to cook for another 15-20 minutes until vegetables are done and dip is hot. If you do not have a smoker, sauté vegetables with a small amount of oil and then add to cheese sauce. Serve with tortilla chips.
