CREAMED SPINACH SOUFFLé WITH ARTICHOKES



Creamed Spinach Soufflé with Artichokes image

A Spinach Soufflé accented with onions, garlic & Parmesan. The perfect side dish for gatherings!

Provided by Mamma C

Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 (10-ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach ((thawed, drained & squeezed dry))
2 (14-ounce) cans quartered artichoke hearts ((Drained. See notes for frozen artichoke hearts.))
2 small or 1 medium onion ((white or yellow; peeled & chopped finely))
4 cloves garlic ((peeled & chopped))
4 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 12-ounce can evaporated milk
1 cup 2% milk
4 eggs ((separated))
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese ((divided use; can use up to double the amount if desired))

Steps:

  • Thaw spinach in the microwave, covered. (I do a couple batches at 3 minutes on high power.) Place spinach in a colander to drain in the sink. Drain the artichoke hearts (or thaw frozen ones in the microwave). Chop the artichokes and pat them dry.
  • While the vegetables are in the microwave, chop the onions and garlic. Grease a 9x13 pan with cooking spray. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Crack eggs, separating the whites into a medium bowl and the yolks into a small bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat the egg whites, starting at low speed and increasing to high, until stiff peaks form. (It will look fluffy, like meringue.) You can chill the egg whites until they are needed.
  • In a 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, and after a couple minutes, add the garlic. Cook until the onions are soft, at least five minutes total. While they are cooking, whisk the evaporated and 2% milk together. Leaving the egg yolks in a separate bowl, beat the yolks with a fork. Place your milk mixture and egg yolks near the stove.
  • In the saucepan, stir in the flour, salt and pepper until blended. Gradually stir in the milk mixture, and continue stirring until the sauce boils and thickens slightly. Spoon a small amount of the sauce into the egg yolks and stir them together to temper the eggs. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the sauce in the pan, stirring quickly to prevent lumps. Stirring constantly, cook until the sauce thickens, but do not let it boil.
  • Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Squeeze the spinach dry (I use a clean dish towel that doesn't shed fibers; paper towels also would work.) Add the spinach and artichokes to a large bowl. Pour the sauce over the vegetables and stir to combine. Using a wire whisk, gently fold in the beaten egg whites until they are incorporated into the mixture.
  • Transfer the vegetable mixture to the 9x13 pan and smooth the top evenly. Sprinkle on 1/4 cup of Parmesan. Bake uncovered for 25 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to four days.

SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE CHICKEN CASSEROLES



Spinach and Artichoke Chicken Casseroles image

Provided by Molly Yeh

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
Kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, chopped
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
Enough chicken soup bouillon for 2 cups broth
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thigh or breast, chopped into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Freshly ground black pepper
One 14-ounce can artichokes, drained and chopped
One 10-ounce block frozen spinach, thawed and drained
8 ounces light cream cheese
1/2 bunch fresh parsley
Pinch crushed red pepper
One 16-ounce can refrigerated biscuit dough
1 large egg, lightly beaten with a splash of water
Flaky salt, such as Maldon

Steps:

  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and a pinch of kosher salt and cook, stirring, until soft, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Stir in the flour to evenly distribute. Add 1 cup milk, stirring continuously until thickened; repeat with the remaining 1 cup. Stir in the chicken soup bouillon, then add the chicken, thyme and a few turns of black pepper and simmer, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the artichokes, spinach, cream cheese, parsley, a pinch of crushed red pepper and a few turns of black pepper. Stir until the cream cheese is melted. Taste and adjust as desired.
  • Divide the spinach, artichoke and chicken mixture into eight 5-inch aluminum pans or a 9-by-13-inch casserole pan. Separate the biscuits, then top the casseroles with them. Brush them with the egg wash and sprinkle with the flaky salt and some black pepper.
  • If baking immediately, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
  • If freezing, allow the casseroles to cool to room temperature, then cover tightly with foil and freeze. To reheat, bake at 400 degrees F for 30 minutes.

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.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

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.

AMAZING SPINACH ARTICHOKE CASSEROLE



Amazing Spinach Artichoke Casserole image

This is a family favorite...spinach, fresh mushrooms, artichokes and cheeses make up a mouth-watering side dish that is creamy and delicious. This recipe has a lot of steps, but it is relatively easy and is well worth it. If you are a garlic lover, add an additional clove or two of pressed garlic to the mixture without roasting it first. This is my most requested vegetable casserole recipe, and it is a Thanksgiving favorite.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible. Fresh spinach and artichokes will give your casserole the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the spinach. Spinach wilts quickly, so cook it just until it is wilted but still bright green.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheeses, such as Parmesan, mozzarella, and cream cheese, will give your casserole a rich and flavorful sauce.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. You can add other vegetables to your casserole, such as mushrooms, zucchini, or red peppers.
  • Make sure the casserole is hot and bubbly before serving. This will ensure that the cheese is melted and the casserole is cooked through.

Conclusion:

Spinach and artichoke casserole is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. With a few simple tips, you can make a spinach and artichoke casserole that is sure to impress your family and friends.
