Creamy Shrimp Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Put onion and drained shrimp in the bowl of a food processor and chop fine.
• Add cream cheese and blend well.
• Add mayonnaise to make it blend a little smoother.
• Add garlic powder and hot sauce.
• Remove from processor and put into a covered bowl in the refrigerator to chill.
• Serve with potato chips or crackers.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the first five ingredients; mix well. Stir in shrimp. Refrigerate until serving. Serve with chips or crackers.

Steps:

• Combine until smooth.
• Chill before serving.
• Serve with crackers, fresh vegetables, slices of pita, etc.

Steps:

• Special equipment: 5-cup broiler-safe casserole dish
• Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in the chili sauce, lemon juice, garlic, Worcestershire, cayenne, oregano, paprika and hot sauce. Bring to a low simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and cook until they are pink and just cooked through, flipping once, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• When cool, place the shimp mixture in a food processor and pulse until roughly chopped. (The shrimp mixture can be made up to a day in advance and refrigerated.)
• Combine the cream cheese and sour cream in a large bowl and stir vigorously with a rubber spatula until smooth. Add the shrimp mixture, scallion whites, parsley, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper and stir to combine. Place in a 5-cup broiler-safe casserole dish and spread evenly.
• Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter and pour over the top of the shrimp dip, making sure to cover the entire surface with a thin layer of butter. Sprinkle with the scallion greens. Chill for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Just before serving, position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the broiler. Broil the dip until the butter layer just begins to melt. Serve with the crackers and crunchy bread.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top position, and preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Beat the cream cheese, mozzarella, sour cream, mayonnaise, Parmesan, 2 tablespoons of the breadcrumbs and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium high until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to add the shrimp.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the shrimp, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the red pepper flakes, and cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp just start to turn pink, about 2 minutes. Add the wine, bring to a simmer and cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 2 minutes (there will be some liquid left in the skillet). Remove the skillet from the heat, and let the shrimp cool completely.
• Meanwhile, mix together the parsley, the remaining 2 tablespoons breadcrumbs and 1 tablespoon melted butter, the lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a small bowl.
• Stir the shrimp, pan sauce and cream cheese mixtures together to combine; transfer to a 2-quart flameproof baking dish. (The dip and breadcrumb mixture can be covered and refrigerated overnight separately at this point.) Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the dip, and bake until hot and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes. Switch the oven to broil, and cook until the top is golden brown, 1 to 3 minutes. Let rest for a few minutes, then serve hot with bread and/or crackers.

Steps:

• Blend cream cheese, chili sauce, celery and horseradish.
• (I usually use an electric mixer to combine the ingredients really well).
• Fold in shrimp.
• Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Serve with your favorite crackers.

Steps:

• Make one day ahead.
• Let cream cheese rest at room temperature until soft.
• Mash all ingredients together (a potato masher works great).
• Chill before serving, at least one day.

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse the cilantro, scallions, garlic, and jalapeno until finely chopped.
• Add the spinach, mayonnaise, chevre, lime juice, and salt.
• Process until smooth.
• Add the shrimp and pulse until finely chopped.
• Transfer the dip to a bowl; cover and chill in refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Chop 3 banana peppers; place in medium bowl. Reserve 2 Tbsp. onions. Add remaining onions to peppers along with the shrimp, corn and shredded cheese; mix lightly.
• Blend salsa and cream cheese in blender until smooth; pour into medium saucepan. Cook on medium heat 3 min. or until cream cheese is melted, stirring constantly. Add shrimp mixture; cook and stir 5 min. or until heated through. Pour into serving dish.
• Slice remaining pepper; place over dip. Sprinkle with reserved onions.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine cream cheese, shrimp, green onions, garlic, and hot sauce in a bowl. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a small, oven-safe baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a golden brown crust forms, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Place the cream cheese in the center of a serving platter.
• In a small bowl, gently blend the shrimp and cocktail sauce. Pour the mixture over the cream cheese. Refrigerate until serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Mix cream cheese, 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, paprika, garlic powder, hot sauce, chives, and Parmesan cheese together in a bowl. Stir in shrimp. Pour into an 8x8-inch baking dish and top with remaining Cheddar cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 10 minutes.
