Chicken Dip

The last girl's poker party was our Christmas get-together. We all bring a dish and a gift and have a good time. Winning at cards is truly secondary. At the last party, one of the girls brought this dip that was really good. I took some home to hubby and he loved. It has just enough zip (heat) to make it interesting.
When I did my column about this, I totally screwed up - forgot the chicken. So I want to make sure you can get it right.

1-8 oz. package sour cream
