Collard Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Melt butter in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and shallots and saute until tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute until it reaches a golden blonde color. Slowly whisk in the cream and turn up heat until it thickens.
• Add the Parmesan and Cheddar. Stir until the cheese has melted. Add salt, pepper, lemon juice, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Fold in the collard greens and artichoke hearts.
• Add mixture to a casserole dish. Bake for 15 minutes until golden brown.
• Serve this dip with baked pita chips.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Cut 25 wonton wrappers in half diagonally. Deep-fry until they are light and crispy, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
• Make the dip: Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add flour to make roux. Cook, whisking until smooth, beige in color and bubbling around the edges of the pan, then pour in milk and continue whisking until fully combined with no lumps. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer and let the sauce thicken a little.
• Add the salt and cayenne pepper and whisk to combine. Stir in cooked collard greens.
• Gradually add cheeses and keep stirring until all ingredients are incorporated.
• Remove from heat and enjoy right away. Place chips on a plate and pour dip over the top. Add a dollop of salsa and sour cream.

Steps:

• Heat the broiler with the rack 6 to 8 inches from the heat source.
• Heat oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high. Add onion, bell pepper and jalapeño. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are lightly browned at the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
• Deglaze the pan by adding chicken stock and stirring and scraping up browned bits. Add heavy cream and cream cheese and simmer, stirring occasionally, until cream cheese is melted. Add 1/2 cup shito and stir to combine, then stir in collards. Reduce heat to medium and simmer rapidly, stirring occasionally, until liquid is reduced to a thick, creamy consistency that coats the greens without being soupy, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Remove from heat and add 1 1/2 cups Cheddar and the lemon juice. Stir until cheese melts. Season to taste with salt and pepper. You can keep the dip in the skillet if the pan is ovenproof, or transfer the dip to a 2-quart baking dish and spread evenly. Combine panko with the remaining 1/2 cup Cheddar and sprinkle over the dip.
• Broil until golden on top, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from oven and spoon remaining 2 tablespoons shito over dip. Serve hot or warm, with baguette, if you'd like.

Steps:

Add collard greens and garlic; cover and cook 10 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
• Add cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, sour cream and Cajun seasoning to the collard mixture, stirring until combined. If desired, trim fatty part from bacon and discard. Crumble remaining bacon and add to collard mixture. Spread mixture in 1 1/2 quart casserole dish or 9 inch pie plate.
