Classic Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Squeeze as much liquid out of the spinach as possible with a a clean dishtowel or paper towels. Melt butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Sauté shallot until soft, 3-5 minutes. Stir in paprika and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, cream, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until warmed through and slightly reduced, 8-10 minutes. Fold in mozzarella and Parmesan and cook until melted; add more cream if needed to reach desired consistency. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.
• Do Ahead

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring until it's softened and fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Add spinach to pot one handful at a time, letting each handful completely wilt before adding the next. Add crushed red pepper, if using, and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid from the spinach has evaporated (no need to drain), about 3 minutes. Add artichokes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for a few minutes, just to take the raw edge off the artichokes.
• Reduce heat to low and add cream cheese and mozzarella. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir until all the cheese has melted, about 3 minutes. Stir in sour cream and pecorino, and season with more salt and pepper.
