Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1.5 cups Chopped artichoke hearts (canned or jarred, drained)
- 1 cup Cooked shrimp, chopped
- 1 cup Crab meat (fresh, canned, or imitation)
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Hot sauce (optional)
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 0.25 tsp Paprika (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, soften the cream cheese by allowing it to come to room temperature or microwaving it for 20-30 seconds. Stir until smooth.
Add the mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and 3/4 cup of the shredded mozzarella cheese to the cream cheese. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Stir in the minced garlic, chopped artichoke hearts, cooked shrimp, crab meat, parsley, lemon juice, and hot sauce (if using). Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish (about 1.5-quart size). Spread it evenly and top with the remaining 1/4 cup of mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly and the top is lightly golden.
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle paprika on top for garnish.
Allow the dip to cool slightly before serving. Serve with crackers, sliced baguette, tortilla chips, or fresh vegetable sticks.
