Hot Spinach- Artichoke Dip

 

This one is a huge hit...
 

4 Tbs 

 

unsalted butter, divided

 

1 medium 

 

onion, chopped finely

 

Two 9-ounce 

 

boxed frozen artichoke hearts, thawed, squeezed dry, and chopped

 

2 cloves 

 

garlic, minced

 

¼ cup 

 

all-purpose flour

 

2 cups 

 

half and half cream

 

1½ cups 

 

grated Parmesan cheese

 

1 Tbs 

 

lemon juice

 

1 Tbs 

 

tabasco

 

1 tsp 

 

salt

 

10 ounce 

 

box frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry

 

 

1

Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven rack to 450°F.

2

Melt 2 Tbsp. butter in large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add artichokes and cook until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Transfer artichoke mixture to plate and reserve.

3

Melt remaining butter in empty pan. Stir in flour and cook until just golden, about 1 minute. Slowly stir in half and half, 1¼ cups Parmesan, lemon juice, hot sauce and salt. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in spinach and reserved artichoke mixture.

4

Transfer to 1-quart souffle or baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese. Bake until golden brown and bubbling, about 15 minutes. Cook 5 minutes. Serve.

 

 Cooking Tips

To make ahead: Prepare the whole dip (but don't bake it). Cover tightly for up to 24 hours. To heat, let dip sit at room temperature for 1 hour, then sprinkle with cheese and bake, covered with foil, in a 450 degree oven for 10 minutes. Remove foil and bake until golden brown and heated through, about 15 minutes longer.
