Scale

Dip Ingredients

  • 1 cup diced roasted Hatch green chiles (fresh or canned)
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (Monterey Jack, cheddar, or pepper jack blend)
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (optional, for extra flavor)
  • Chopped green onions or cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the dip to achieve a bubbly and golden top.
  2. Mix Your Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and sour cream using a hand mixer or whisk until smooth. Fold in the shredded cheese and diced Hatch green chiles. Add garlic powder and onion powder, mixing until all ingredients are evenly blended.
  3. Season: Season the mixture with salt and pepper according to your taste. Optionally, drizzle in olive oil for an extra layer of flavor and stir well to distribute the seasonings evenly.
  4. Baking Time: Transfer the mixture into a baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until the top is bubbly and golden brown, watching closely near the end to avoid overcooking.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Allow the dip to cool for a few minutes after removing it from the oven. Garnish with chopped green onions or cilantro if desired. Serve warm with tortilla chips, fresh vegetables, or as a nacho topping.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of Hatch green chiles to control the heat level of the dip.
  • Use a blend of cheeses to customize flavor and spice according to your preference.
  • If you prefer a spicier dip, include pepper jack cheese or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • This dip can be prepared ahead and baked just before serving for convenience.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated gently before serving.
