Spinach and Artichoke Dip

Method

Spinach and Artichoke Dip

  1. 1

    Prepare spinach

    Thaw frozen spinach completely (leave in refrigerator overnight or microwave until thawed). Place thawed spinach in a fine-mesh sieve or clean kitchen towel and press or squeeze firmly to remove as much water as possible. You should end up with about 1 cup tightly packed; excess moisture will make the dip runny.

  2. 2

    Prep artichokes and garlic

    Drain canned artichoke hearts well and roughly chop into bite-sized pieces. Mince the garlic cloves finely.

  3. 3

    Combine base ingredients

    In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add sour cream and mayonnaise and whisk until fully combined and creamy.

  4. 4

    Add cheeses and seasonings

    Stir in the grated Parmesan and 3/4 cup of the shredded mozzarella (reserve remaining 1/4 cup for topping). Add minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, black pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Mix until evenly distributed.

  5. 5

    Fold in vegetables

    Fold the well-drained spinach and chopped artichoke hearts into the cream-cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.

  6. 6

    Bake the dip

    Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the mixture to a shallow ovenproof baking dish (about 1 to 1.5 quart). Smooth the top and sprinkle the reserved 1/4 cup shredded mozzarella evenly over the surface. Bake for 20–25 minutes until bubbly and the top is lightly golden.

  7. 7

    Finish and garnish

    Remove from oven and let rest 5 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped parsley if using. Taste and adjust salt/pepper as needed before serving.

Grilled Flatbread

  1. 8

    Preheat grill or skillet

    Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high or warm a large heavy skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat on the stovetop.

  2. 9

    Brush and season flatbreads

    Brush both sides of each flatbread lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt if desired.

  3. 10

    Grill flatbreads

    Place flatbreads on the hot grill or skillet. Cook 1–2 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the bread is warmed through and slightly crisp at the edges. For a charred flavor, cook a bit longer but watch carefully to avoid burning.

  4. 11

    Cut and serve

    Remove flatbreads from heat. Cut into wedges or tear into pieces for easy dipping. Arrange on a platter next to the baked spinach-artichoke dip and garnish with chopped parsley.
