ALMOST-FAMOUS SPINACH-ARTICHOKE DIP



Almost-Famous Spinach-Artichoke Dip image

Houston's hugely popular spinach-and-artichoke appetizer wasn't always such a crowd pleaser. It started as a lowly side dish in the mid '80s, after Houston's first opened in Nashville, and it came dangerously close to disappearing from the menu altogether until chefs at the restaurant's Chicago outpost noticed customers ordering it with chips and eating it like a dip. The chefs tweaked founder George Biel's recipe and gave it a snappy name, Chicago- Style Spinach Dip, and it became an instant hit. Some fans, like Isabel Mondejo from Orlando, FL, can't get enough of it and wrote to us asking for the recipe. The company wouldn't divulge its secrets, so the chefs in Food Network Kitchens created this perfect imitation.

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Kosher salt
2 10-ounce bags spinach, stems removed
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons minced onion
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/4 cups grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1/2 cup shredded white sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, squeezed dry and roughly chopped
Tortilla chips and salsa, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Stir in the spinach and cook until bright green, about 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water; squeeze out the excess moisture, then finely chop.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until the onion is soft, about 2 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Whisk in the milk and cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Stir in the lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan and sour cream.
  • Return the pot to medium heat. Add the spinach, cheddar and artichokes and stir until the cheese melts and the dip is heated through. Serve warm with tortilla chips, salsa and sour cream.

Categories     appetizer

Time 35m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Two 10-ounce packages frozen fire-roasted corn
Two 4.5-ounce cans chopped green chiles
1/2 cup jarred jalapenos, chopped
1/2 cup jarred salsa
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
Corn chips, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Stir together the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise in a large bowl until combined. Add the corn, chiles, jalapenos, salsa, salt, pepper and half the grated cheese, then stir.
  • Spread the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish and sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese. Bake until bubbly and golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Top with the cilantro and serve warm with the corn chips on the side.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your cheddar dip will be. Use fresh cheddar cheese, vegetables, and spices.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: They should be tender-crisp, not mushy. Cook them over medium heat until they are bright and colorful.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese: A sharp cheddar cheese will give your dip a bold flavor. If you can, use a freshly grated cheese, as it will melt more smoothly.
  • Add some extra flavor: You can add some extra flavor to your cheddar dip by adding a pinch of garlic powder, onion powder, or cayenne pepper. You can also add some chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, or cilantro.
  • Serve with your favorite dippers: Cheddar dip is perfect for serving with a variety of dippers, such as tortilla chips, crackers, vegetables, or bread.

Conclusion:

Snappy cheddar dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is made with just a few simple ingredients and can be ready in under 30 minutes.
