Categories     appetizer

Time 55m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 Hatch green chile or 1 cup canned diced Hatch chiles
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 cup finely chopped scallions, white and light green parts only, plus 2 tablespoons sliced dark green parts, for garnish (4 to 5 scallions)
1 pound cream cheese, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
2 cups Mexican blend shredded cheese (8 ounces)
1 teaspoon lime zest (2 limes)
Blue and white tortilla chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the Hatch chiles on a burner over medium-low heat until the skins char and blister; this will happen very quickly. Remove to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside for 15 minutes to steam.
  • Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat and add the canola oil, swirling the pan to coat. Add the scallions and cook until slightly softened, stirring, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, peel and seed the chile and then it cut into medium dice. Turn the heat under the skillet to low and add the chiles, cream cheese and some salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the cream cheese is melted. Add the sour cream, 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheese, and the lime zest. Smooth the top and then sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheese.
  • Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly and just starting to brown, about 15 minutes.
  • Garnish with the dark green scallions and serve with tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cream cheese: The cream cheese is the base of this spread, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a cream cheese that is smooth and spreadable, without any lumps.
  • Use fresh green chiles: Fresh green chiles will give the spread the best flavor. If you can't find fresh green chiles, you can use canned or roasted green chiles, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Roast your own green chiles: Roasting your own green chiles is the best way to get the most flavor out of them. To roast green chiles, simply place them on a baking sheet and broil them until they are charred. Then, remove the skins and seeds and chop the chiles.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to chop the green chiles and other ingredients.
  • Use a food processor: A food processor will make it easy to combine all of the ingredients and get a smooth spread.
  • Serve immediately or store: This spread can be served immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you are storing the spread, be sure to cover it tightly.

Conclusion:

This green chile cream cheese spread is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It is perfect for parties, potlucks, or simply enjoying at home. The spread is creamy, flavorful, and has just the right amount of heat. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
