Jalapeño Popper Dip

Creamy, cheesy, and just the right amount of spicy, this Jalapeño Popper Dip is the kind of recipe I bring out for tailgates, the Super Bowl, or honestly any gathering in need of great snacks. With bacon, melty cheese and a creamy topping, it has all the best parts of a classic jalapeño popper without any of the fuss!

Equipment

  • baking dish
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Mixing bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices of bacon
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 green onions, minced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 oz canned green chiles
  • 1.5 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1.5 cup Monterey jack cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup Panko bread crumbs
  • 2 tablespoon salted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
  • salt & pepper

Instructions
 

  • First cook the bacon. I like to bake mine at 400°F for 15–20 minutes on a baking sheet fitted with a rack, but you can also cook it on the stovetop or in the air fryer. Once cooked, drain on a paper towel and roughly chop. Set aside.
  • Cook the bacon first. I like to bake mine at 400°F for 15–20 minutes on a baking sheet fitted with a rack, but you can also cook it on the stovetop or in the air fryer. Once cooked, drain on a paper towel and roughly chop.
  • While the bacon cooks, add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, green onions, diced green chiles, and shredded cheeses to a large bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir until well combined, then fold in the chopped bacon.
    Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and spread it out evenly.
  • In a small bowl, combine the panko with the melted butter, then stir in the Parmesan and parsley. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the dip.
    Bake at 375°F for about 20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
    Serve warm and enjoy!
