Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces (about 1 cup) frozen spinach
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 cup chopped green onions (3 to 4 green onions), both green and white parts
1 chopped poblano pepper (for some spice) or red bell pepper (for mild flavor)
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (scale down or omit for mild flavor)
¼ teaspoon fine salt, to taste
8 ounces cream cheese, sliced into 4 even pieces
½ cup (4 ounces) sour cream
½ cup (4 ounces) chopped artichoke, canned or marinated
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Serving suggestions: Tortilla chips, toasted pita wedges or pita chips, crostini, strips of bell pepper, carrot or celery sticks...

Steps:

  • To thaw the frozen spinach, place it in a fine mesh sieve and run cool water over it until the ice is all gone. Squeeze out all of the excess moisture in a tea towel or in fistfuls over the sink. Set aside.
  • In a small-to-medium skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil until shimmering. Add the green onions, poblano pepper, red pepper flakes (if using) and ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the green onions are frazzled and lightly golden around the edges and the peppers are tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the drained spinach, cream cheese, sour cream, drained artichoke, and several twists of black pepper. While stirring constantly, cook until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed together, warmed through and lightly steaming, about 2 to 4 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper, to taste (careful, the dip is hot!).
  • Serve warm with any desired accompaniments. Leftover dip will keep in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 4 days. Gently reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop before serving.

THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP



The Best Spinach Artichoke Dip image

This is our best version of the classic party dip. It's savory and creamy with a slight tang from sour cream and Parmesan -- so hard to resist. We like to use frozen whole leaf spinach and chop it ourselves for more control over the finished texture of the dish.

Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, grated
One 10-ounce box frozen leaf spinach, thawed, drained, squeezed dry and coarsely chopped (see Cook's Note)
One 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained well and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup shredded whole-milk mozzarella
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crackers, chips or toasted bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
  • Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.

UNBELIEVABLY CREAMY SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE DIP RECIPE



Unbelievably Creamy Spinach and Artichoke Dip Recipe image

This dip is unbelievably creamy - it's practically addictive. We love serving alongside vegetables, pita wedges, bread or chips. This dip should be served warm. You can make this up to 3 days in advance, just store covered tightly in the refrigerator and reheat before serving. If making ahead, reserve the extra cheese for the top of the dip until you are ready to heat and serve. We use artichokes from cans. You can find frozen artichokes. If using frozen artichokes, thaw before making recipe. Also available are jarred artichokes packed in oil. You can use these without rinsing, just omit the oil.

Time 35m

Yield Makes approximately 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups drained artichoke hearts, roughly chopped (from two 14-ounce cans)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups (355 ml) milk, plus more as needed
4 ounces cream cheese
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (about 1/2 cup)
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, coarsely grated (about 1 cup)
1 scallion, thinly sliced
Salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Butter or spray a small baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. (The pan should hold 4 to 5 cups. An 8-inch round pan, 8-inch x 4-inch loaf pan, 8-inch square pan or small oval baking dish will work).
  • Heat olive oil in a wide skillet with sides over medium heat then add minced garlic and cook about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the artichokes and cook 2 to 3 minutes until warmed through and beginning to brown around the edges. Add the spinach and season lightly with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the spinach wilts down, about 2 minutes. Transfer garlic, artichokes, and spinach to a bowl and set aside.
  • Place the skillet back onto medium heat then add the butter. When the butter begins to bubble, add the flour. Cook, whisking constantly 2 to 3 minutes until butter smells fragrant and nutty - the color of the butter-flour mixture will be light brown. While whisking, slowly pour the milk into butter and flour mixture. Continue to cook, whisking constantly until the sauce bubbles and thickens.
  • Remove pan from the heat. Stir in the cream cheese, cayenne pepper, and oregano. When the cream cheese has melted into the sauce, add feta cheese and half (1/2 cup) of the mozzarella cheese. Stir until completely melted. Stir in the garlic, artichokes, and spinach from earlier.
  • Transfer the dip to baking dish and top with remaining mozzarella cheese (1/2 cup). Bake the dip until bubbly and the cheese begins to brown on top, 15 to 20 minutes. To make the cheese even more browed on top, turn oven to broil and broil 1 to 2 minutes. Serve warm.
