One last recipe before game day!! Poblano Corn Cheese Dip 🙂
I'm allllll about that cheesy cheese dip! And no Super Bowl party is complete without some bubbling hot dip in some capacity! You might be a spinach dip kinda person, or maybe artichoke dip is more your speed. Or perhaps you prefer kale and bacon! And maybe you're more of a queso fundido kinda human. Well those are all fantastic options but let me tell you about this Poblano Corn Cheese Dip! (Psst... if you love this recipe, you will die for my epic Chili Lime Creamed Corn. Just saying!) Lots of cheese, tons of corn, smoky poblano peppers, freshly fried tortilla chips... THE WORKS. It all gets made in 1 skillet and then baked until bubbly and hot. It's then topped with fresh herbs to give it that extra pop of flavor and then.... GAME TIME!
Poblano Corn Cheese Dip
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 poblano peppers diced
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 3 cups frozen charred corn
- 6 scallions thinly sliced
- 1 clove of garlic minced
- 1 lime juiced
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- 8 ounces of sour cream
- 8 ounces of softened cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese
- kosher salt and fresh cracked black pepper
- Scallions and cilantro for garnish
- Tortilla Chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Sauté the poblanos and onion in a cast iron skillet with olive oil for 4-5 minutes. Add the frozen corn and stir. Add the scallions, fresh garlic, lime juice, smoked paprika, sour cream, softened cream cheese and a little salt and pepper. Top with the shredded cheese.
- Transfer the skillet into the oven and bake for 12 minutes. Remove when it is hot, bubbling and golden brown. Garnish with more scallions and cilantro and serve with tortilla chips
Halp - I really want to make this but I don’t have a cast iron skillet! If I sautéed everything in stainless steel and baked it in a Le Creuset square baking dish (I think it’s 8x8 but could be 9x9) would it still turn out well?
We’re trying to take it to a friend’s place as an appetizer so we also need it to travel lol
ya that would be fine!
Can I char my own corn and add it or does it have to be frozen when adding?
you can do it yourself!
I'm making this for a BBQ this weekend! Would it still turn out the same if assembled it in skillet the night before, and then baked in oven the following day? Thanks!
shouldn't be an issue!!
Bringing this favorite out for Super Bowl!
My boys love this!
