Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a frying pan over medium high heat. Add Panko bread crumbs and toast, stirring frequently, for a couple of minutes until crisp and golden brown. Remove from heat and pour into a small bowl to cool. Set aside.
Into a mixing bowl add sour cream, softened cream cheese, ranch seasoning, pickle juice and lemon juice with a few drop of hot sauce (optional). Use an electric hand mixture to blend until well combined. Add in chopped pickles, garlic, dill and chives and stir to combine. Taste and add additional salt, pepper or hot sauce according to your preference.
Spoon about half of the sour cream and pickle mixture into a serving dish. Then sprinkle about half of the toasted breaded crumbs on top. Spoon in the remaining sour cream mixture and top with the remaining breadcrumbs. Serve with potato chips, pita chips or fresh veggies and enjoy!
