Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces (canned or jarred, drained and chopped) Artichoke hearts
- 8 ounces (softened) Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons (finely chopped) Fresh dill
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
- 3 ounces (grated, about 3/4 cup) Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup (shredded) Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup (shredded) Sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup (optional, for topping) Breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon (optional, for drizzling on breadcrumbs) Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and creamy.
Fold in the chopped artichoke hearts, minced garlic, fresh dill, Parmesan cheese, half of the shredded mozzarella, and half of the cheddar cheese. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, then stir to combine.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheeses evenly over the top to create a cheesy layer.
If using breadcrumbs, mix them with olive oil and sprinkle evenly over the cheese layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbling. If necessary, turn on the broiler for the last 1-2 minutes to achieve a crispy, golden crust.
Remove the bake from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with crackers, crusty bread, or fresh vegetable sticks, or enjoy it as a rich and cheesy side dish.
