Ingredients

Scale

Dip Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 ounces) whole kernel corn
  • 1 can (4.5 ounces) chopped green chilies
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garnish

  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, chopped green chilies, shredded cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until fully blended.
  3. Prepare for Baking: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
  4. Bake the Dip: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly, indicating the cheese is melted and flavors have melded.
  5. Garnish: Remove the dip from the oven and sprinkle the chopped fresh cilantro on top for a fresh, herbal brightness and color contrast.
  6. Serve: Serve the corn dip hot alongside tortilla chips or other favorite dippers like crackers or sliced vegetables.
  7. Enjoy: Dig in and enjoy this flavorful, creamy appetizer ideal for gatherings or casual snacking.

Notes

  • For extra heat, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or use jalapeños instead of green chilies.
  • You can substitute sour cream with Greek yogurt for a tangier, healthier option.
  • Make sure to drain the corn well to avoid watery dip.
  • This dip can be prepared in advance and refrigerated before baking; just add a few extra minutes to baking time if baking straight from the fridge.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days and reheated in the oven.
