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.

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

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

  • 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.

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.

SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP



Spinach Artichoke Dip image

Spinach artichoke dip has a way of inciting controversy. Should it be served cold or hot? Is it lowbrow or classic? Should it be served in a bread bowl or with tortilla chips? Well, the good news is that there are no wrong answers here, only delicious, creamy dip. This particular one is best served hot (or at least room temperature), but it is also acceptable to spread it on crackers after being chilled. And with the inclusion of fresh spinach, it could almost be described as classy. Use canned artichoke hearts; they've got a tangier flavor and better texture than the frozen ones. If you want to go a step further, transfer it to a skillet and run it under the broiler after cooking, which gives you bubbling dip with a golden top.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     easy, quick, dips and spreads, appetizer

Time 25m

Yield 2 to 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large garlic clove, finely chopped
1 12-ounce bunch fresh spinach, finely chopped (or 1 10-ounce package frozen spinach, defrosted, drained and finely chopped)
Pinch of red-pepper flakes (optional)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 (14-ounce) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 ounces fresh mozzarella, torn or shredded
4 ounces sour cream or full-fat Greek yogurt
1/4 cup Pecorino Romano or Parmesan, finely grated

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
  • Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper. You can certainly eat this dip straight from the pot (or transferred to a serving bowl), but running it under the broiler for a crispy top is also an excellent option. To do so, transfer dip to a small ovenproof skillet (6 to 8 inches). Place in oven and broil until the top is golden and the dip is bubbling, 5 to 8 minutes. Let sit a minute or two before serving.

Valuable Tips When Making Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole Recipes

Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole is a delightful dish that is perfect for a nice family dinner or for hosting a special gathering. The right combination of ingredients and techniques can take this casserole to another level, making it a memorable and flavorful masterpiece. Here are some valuable tips to help you make the best Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole:
1. Choosing the Right Artichoke and Spinach
One of the most essential steps in making an Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole is choosing fresh and high-quality artichokes and spinach. Canned artichokes and frozen spinach may be convenient, but using fresh ingredients will undoubtedly elevate the dish to another level. When shopping, choose artichokes with tight, closed leaves and avoid those with brown spots, mold, or signs of decay. For the spinach, look for bright green leaves, avoiding any yellow or wilted ones.
2. Cooking the Vegetables Properly
Preparing the artichokes and spinach is equally as important as choosing the proper veggies. Firstly, rinse the artichokes and cut them properly by removing the tough outer leaves and trimming the stems. Afterward, steam or boil them until they are tender to ensure they are soft and edible once the dish is baked. Be sure to squeeze any excess water from the spinach and cook it over medium heat until it wilts and releases any excess moisture before incorporating it into the casserole, which helps prevent a watery dish.
3. Choosing the Right Cheese
Choosing the right cheese is crucial for achieving a creamy and well-flavored Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole. Asiago cheese is the perfect choice when it comes to this recipe, as it is a more potent and nutty cheese that can withstand the other flavors present in the dish. Other good options may include Parmesan cheese or sharp cheddar to provide depth and complexity to the casserole.
4. Adding an Element of Crunch
Given that most of the ingredients are soft, adding a crunchy element to the casserole can make a significant difference in texture, creating an enjoyable contrast. The addition of breadcrumbs or crushed crackers as a topping will add a layer of crispy texture to the otherwise soft and creamy casserole.
5. Minimal Seasonings
This casserole is already packed with incredible flavors, and over-seasoning may ruin its taste. A few essential seasonings such as salt, black pepper, and garlic powder are enough to enhance the dish's flavor.
6. Don't skimp on the dairy
One of the secrets of a creamy and delicious Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole is ensuring that there is enough dairy to keep the dish creamy when it's baked. Sour cream and cream cheese is an excellent combination to create the creamy consistency. A good rule of thumb is to use a full-fat variety of both sour cream and cream cheese for optimal results.
7. Use a Large Casserole Dish
The size of the casserole dish used when preparing the Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole is crucial to ensure a smooth and consistent bake. For instance, using a small casserole dish causes the casserole ingredients to be too densely packed, which makes it difficult for the dish to cook evenly. A six to eight-quart casserole dish is ideal for achieving the perfect bake.
8. Preheat the Oven
Preheat the oven to 350°F for at least 15 minutes before baking the casserole. Preheating allows the oven to achieve the correct temperature, allowing the casserole to bake evenly, and the crunchy topping to brown evenly.
9. Cover the Casserole During Baking
Covering the casserole dish with foil during the first 30 minutes of baking helps to keep the heat in and cook the vegetables evenly. As a result, this ensures that the casserole is cooked consistently and prevents the topping from overbrowning. Uncover for the last 15 minutes to allow the topping to brown evenly.
10. Rest Before Serving
Allow the Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole to rest for about ten minutes before serving. This allows the dish's flavors to infuse and settle, making it easier to slice and serve. This also helps to reduce the risk of burning your tongue on hot cheese and prevents the casserole from falling apart when served. In conclusion, these valuable tips will help you create a delicious and flavorful Artichoke Spinach Asiago Casserole that will leave your guests impressed. Taking the extra effort to follow these tips will undoubtedly make a massive difference in the final result.
