Chef Johns Hot Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat; stir in onions and pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Stir garlic into onions and remove from heat.
• Mix green onion mixture, spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, Gruyere, Parmigiano-Reggiano, hot sauce, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until combined.
• Spoon artichoke mixture into two ramekins. Top each with shredded mozzarella cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are golden brown and bubbling, about 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Boil spinach and artichokes in 1 cup of water until tender and drain. Discard liquid. Heat cream cheese in microwave for 1 minute or until hot and soft. Stir in rest of ingredients and serve hot.

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.

Steps:

• Begin by rinsing artichokes well under cold water to remove the brine and chop coarsely in a food processor.
• Remove and set aside for later use.
• In a two-quart heavy bottom sauté pan melt butter over medium high heat.
• Add onions, celery, bell peppers and garlic.
• Sauté 3 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are wilted.
• Add artichokes and blend well into the vegetable mixture, stir and cook 5 additional minutes.
• Sprinkle in flour and blend well to form a white roux, do not brown.
• Add chicken stock and heavy whipping cream one cup at a time whisking constantly until a thick cream sauce is achieved.
• Reduce heat to simmer.
• Add white wine and season to taste using salt and pepper.
• Simmer approximately 15 minutes stirring occasionally to keep from scorching.
• The mixture should resemble a thick cream sauce and should it become too thick additional whipping cream or stock may be added to reach desired consistency.
• Add spinach, green onions and parsley then fold in lump crabmeat.
• Cook 5 minutes longer, then remove from heat.
• Fold in Parmesan cheese and adjust seasonings if necessary.
• Place the mixture in a chafing dish and serve with garlic croutons or crackers.
• Can be served hot or cold.

Steps:

• Boil spinach and artichokes in 1 cup water for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain.

Steps:

• Serve with baguette slices and vegetable sticks.

Steps:

• Put the artichoke hearts and spinach in a microwave-safe bowl, and cover it with plastic wrap. Cut a small slit in the plastic to let the steam out, then microwave on high for 4 minutes. Stir, and zap it again for another 2 to 3 minutes or until the artichoke hearts are tender. If you don't want to use a microwave you can also boil the spinach and artichoke hearts in a cup of water in a small saucepan over medium heat until tender, around 10 minutes. Drain in a colander when done.
• Heat the cream cheese in a small bowl in the microwave set on high for 1 minutes. Or, use a saucepan to heat the cheese over medium heat just until hot.
• Add the spinach and artichoke hearts to the cream cheese and stir well.
• Add the remaining ingredients to the cream cheese and combine. Serve warm with crackers, chips, or toasted bread for dipping.
• To make a lighter version, use reduced fat cream cheese.
