Ingredients

2 (10-ounce) packages fresh spinach, well rinsed and stems trimmed
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup chopped yellow onions
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 cup heavy cream
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 pound roughly chopped cooked shrimp
1 cup (1/2-inch) cubes rindless Brie
1 cup grated Monterey Jack
1 (6 1/2-ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained and chopped
4 strips bacon, fried crisp, drained and chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Assorted chips, for dipping (pita chips, tortilla chips, bagel chips)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9 or 10-inch round ovenproof casserole and set aside.

Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the spinach in batches and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove and refresh under cold running water. Squeeze to remove all excess water and chop. Set aside. In a medium pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, to make a light roux, about 2 minutes. Add the milk and cream in a steady stream, and cook, stirring constantly, until thick and creamy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the cooked spinach and lemon juice, and stir to incorporate. Add the shrimp, cubed and grated cheeses, artichoke hearts, and bacon, and stir well. Remove from the heat and pour into the prepared dish. Top with the Parmesan and bake until bubbly, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve hot with chips.

It was the hit of the party!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

We made this for the 4th of July and it turned out to be the hit of the party! We made only a few slight modifications in... that we used Pepper Jack instead of Monterey Jack; Siracha sauce instead of Cayenne pepper. We roasted the Shrimp with olive oil, kosher salt, pepper and garlic (Barefoot Contessa) before chopping and putting in the dip and finally, mixed the Parmesan cheese into the dip and topped with more before baking. IT MAKES A LOT! At first I was afraid we'd have a lot left over and then I was afraid we'd have none left! We had a little bit left and my husband used some of it for a fritata - yum! (This would probably taste good in a baked potato) Suggestions: Unless you put about 2 pounds of shrimp in it, you really don't taste it. I would suggest crab next time or a mixture of both (maybe even scallops). Also, serving with toasted, sliced baguettes would be great.Read more

VALENTINE PARTY
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was awesome. I hosted an adult game party/dinner and this was an appetizer and let me tell you this was a hit. Of course... I had to add just a little more salt and pepper, but the seasons flowed soooooooooo well together. This is not a throw together dip it requires time, but so worth it.Read more

I made this for a housewarming party. It was easy and a big hit. We really did not taste the shrimp and if I make it again... will omit. I served it with homemade baked baguettes, spread with garlic butter and asigo cheese.There were no leftovers!Read more

Best spinich dip ever
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is the best and easiest dip ever. We found that the flavors mixed a lot more if we let it sit overnight.
