Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix the Base

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Use a hand mixer or whisk to blend them together until smooth and creamy.

  2. 2

    Add the Clams

    Gently fold in the drained canned clams into the cream cheese mixture. Be careful not to break up the clams too much.

  3. 3

    Season the Dip

    Add the lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.

  4. 4

    Incorporate Fresh Herbs

    Fold in the chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and a pop of color.

  5. 5

    Chill the Dip

    Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the dip for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once chilled, serve the clam dip in a serving bowl with a side of potato chips for dipping.
