Time 25m

Yield 3 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 onion, chopped fine
2 (9 ounce) boxes frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, squeezed dry, and chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups half-and-half
1 1/2 cups grated parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

Steps:

  • Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 450 degrees. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add artichokes and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer artichoke mixture to plate and reserve.
  • Melt remaining butter in empty pan. Stir in flour and cook until just golden, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in half-and-half, 11/4 cups Parmesan, lemon juice, hot sauce, and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Off heat, stir in spinach and reserved artichoke mixture.
  • Transfer to 1-quart soufflÇ or baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 15 minutes. Cool 5 minutes. Serve.
  • Make Ahead: Dip can be prepared through step 2 and refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. To heat, let dip sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then sprinkle with cheese and bake, covered with foil, in a 450-degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake until golden brown and heated through, about 15 minutes longer.
