Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 can Rotel tomatoes and green chilies (diced, canned)
- 1 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup sweet corn kernels (drained, canned or frozen and thawed)
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 packet taco seasoning
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small jalapeño (optional, finely diced for heat)
- 1 bag tortilla chips (for serving)
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and the finely diced onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the minced garlic and diced jalapeño (if using) to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it up with a wooden spoon and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess grease if necessary.
Sprinkle the taco seasoning over the cooked ground beef and stir to evenly coat. Cook for 1-2 minutes to allow the seasoning to flavor the meat.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese to the skillet. Stir constantly until the cream cheese is melted and thoroughly combined with the meat mixture.
Stir in the Rotel tomatoes (with their juices), black beans, and corn kernels. Mix well to combine.
Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese to the skillet, stirring until melted and smooth.
Optional: Stir in the chopped cilantro for a burst of fresh flavor.
Transfer the Dallas Dip to a serving bowl or keep it warm in a slow cooker set to low. Serve hot alongside tortilla chips for dipping.
