Ingredient notes:
- Please use full-fat sour cream and full-fat cream cheese for a nice creaminess and to make sure that the dip melts properly during baking.
- You will need to add half of the Parmesan cheese before baking and stir in the remaining half right after baking. That way you get a nicely cheesy dip that won’t get too dry during baking.
- The jalapeno jar liquid adds both moisture and a vinegary tartness. If you prefer less tartness you can use less liquid than what the recipe calls for.
How to make it:
See full ingredients & instructions in the recipe card below!
Step 1. Preheat the oven, then whip sour cream and cream cheese until smooth.
Step 2. Stir in artichoke hearts, jalapeno peppers and liquid, salt, oregano and half of the Parmesan.
Step 3. Transfer the dip to a baking or casserole pan.
Step 4. Bake the dip, then stir in the remaining Parmesan cheese. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve warm.
How to serve it:
Serve the dip warm with tortilla chips or crackers.
What are jarred jalapenos?
Jalapeno pepper slices sold in glass jars are suspended in a liquid made of water, vinegar, salt and usually spices. The vinegar solution gives them an intense tartness.
How are jarred jalapenos different from fresh jalapenos?
Jarred jalapenos have a flavor profile that is drastically different from that of fresh jalapenos. Because of that, the two cannot be interchanged. Fresh jalapenos have a very fresh and green flavor that is completely missing from jarred jalapeno slices.
