Spicy Bacon Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipes

SUNNY'S SPICY 5-INGREDIENT SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place a strainer over a medium bowl and drain the liquid from the artichoke jar into the bowl. Reserve the liquid and set aside the artichokes.
• Add 3 tablespoons liquid from the artichoke jar to a large saute pan over medium heat along with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the baby spinach in handfuls and stir until all the spinach is wilted, then cook for a few minutes, allowing the liquid to evaporate a bit. Meanwhile, chop the artichoke hearts and add them to a large bowl.
• Once the spinach is completely wilted down, add it to the chopped artichokes. Stir in the chive cream cheese, sour cream, 8 ounces pepper jack cheese and a pinch of black pepper and mix thoroughly with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon.
• Transfer the spinach mixture to an 8-inch square baking dish and smooth off the top. Top the dip with the remaining 4 ounces pepper jack cheese. Place on a sheet tray to catch any drips, and bake until the edges are bubbly and the top is golden, about 25 minutes. (If desired, broil for 2 to 3 minutes to brown the top further.) Serve with the tortilla chips.

HOT ARTICHOKE, SPINACH AND BACON DIP

Steps:

• Remove a lid from the loaf of bread. Scoop inside of bread out, leaving about a 1/2 inch shell.
• I baked the lid and the soft insides for 5 minutes, then broke into chunks for dipping.
• Mix together all ingredients except paprika, and pile into bread shell.
• Sprinkle over paprika, and bake in a moderate oven for 30 minutes or until hot and bubbling.
• Serve with vegetables and crackers to dip (I just like to rip the bread shell apart though).

• Combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, cayenne and granulated garlic in a large bowl and mix well.

WARM ARTICHOKE AND BACON DIP

Steps:

• For the pita chips: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a small bowl, combine the chili powder and cumin. Drizzle the tops of the pita breads with the oil and sprinkle with the spice mixture and salt. Cut each pita bread into 8 wedges and arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake until crisp and golden, about 10 minutes.
• For the dip: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch round ceramic deep-dish pie pan or a 1-quart baking dish.
• Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oil and bacon and cook until crispy, about 8 minutes. Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels. When cool enough to handle, crumble into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside. In the same skillet, add the oil (if needed), shallots, garlic, artichokes, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until the shallots are translucent and the artichokes begin to brown, about 8 minutes.
• Transfer the vegetables to a food processor. Add the mascarpone cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, 1/2 of the cooked bacon pieces and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Pulse until combined but still chunky. Place the dip in the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the remaining bacon pieces. Bake until just warmed through (do not let the dip boil), 10 minutes. Serve the pita chips alongside.
