Goat cheese is a white goat's milk cheese noted for its distinctive tart flavor. If desired, 4 ounces of cream cheese can be substituted for the goat cheese.
To save time before your party, purchase a rotisserie chicken the night before the event and remove the breast meat to yield 1 cup chopped chicken. The rest of the chicken can be served to your family the night before the party.
