Roasted Corn Dip
This rich and satisfying Mexican inspired roasted corn dip is a hit every summer!
Servings: 10
Equipment
- I use an 8 inch pie plate, but you can use any similar sized shallow oven safe baking dish.
Ingredients
- 4 ears sweet corn
- 1/3 cup cream cheese
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1/3 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 tsp coarse salt (or more to taste.)
- 1/2 tsp chili powder (or more to taste.)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (or more to taste.)
- 4 ounces canned fire roasted chiles, mild
- 1 jalapeño finely diced
- 2 cups shredded cheese, use a Mexican blend, or mix cheddar with Monterey jack.
- 4 green onions, finely sliced
Instructions
- Place the husked corn cobs on a dry baking sheet. Place the corn on the top rung under the broiler and broil until lightly charred, turning the corn with tongs to get the whole surface exposed to the heat. Set aside until cool enough to handle and then slice the kernels off the cobs.
- Preheat the oven to 375F.
- While the corn is cooling blend the cream cheese, mayo, sour cream, salt, chili powder, and garlic powder. If your cream cheese is cold it helps to use a small food processor to blend it completely.
- Add the corn, canned chiles (don't drain) and jalapeños to the bowl, along with the shredded cheese. Blend everything together really well.
- Transfer the dip to your baking pan and smooth out evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until hot throughout and starting to caramelize on top. Note: if your baking dish is different from mine your baking time may differ as well.
- Serve the dip hot, with tortilla chips.
- Refrigerate leftover dip and consume within 2 days. I don't recommend freezing this dip as the textures can suffer.
