SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP PASTA WITH CHICKEN



Spinach Artichoke Dip Pasta with Chicken image

A classic dip transforms into a crowd-friendly pasta. The rotisserie chicken is an optional add-in, but it makes this comforting mac and cheese (with a twist!) a complete meal-in-a-bowl. Best of all, leftovers are easy to rewarm in the microwave or stovetop and taste just as great on day 2 when the flavors have had even more time to intensify.

Time 25m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound short pasta, such as medium shells or rigatoni
1/2 cup sour cream
Two 14-ounce cans cooked or marinated artichoke hearts, diced
4 cups diced cooked chicken
1 cup sliced oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
2 pounds fresh spinach
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons freshly ground pepper
One 8-ounce block cream cheese, cubed
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan
2 cups shredded sharp white Cheddar

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions until al dente.
  • Drain the pasta, return it to the pot then add the sour cream and stir to combine. Stir in the artichoke hearts, chicken and sun-dried tomatoes then set the pasta aside.
  • Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook, stirring, until the spinach is wilted and most of the liquid has cooked off, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour then add the milk, garlic powder, pepper and cream cheese, stirring to combine. Continue cooking the sauce, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan and Cheddar.
  • Pour the cheese sauce over the pasta mixture, stirring until well combined then serve.

SPINACH AND ARTICHOKE PASTA BAKE

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 10-ounce bag frozen spinach
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for the pasta water
1 pound rigatoni
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
One 4-ounce jar artichoke hearts packed in oil, drained and roughly chopped
4 ounces cream cheese, cubed
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella

Steps:

  • Microwave the spinach according to the package instructions, then allow to cool slightly. Squeeze out the excess water with a kitchen towel and set aside.
  • Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil. Add the rigatoni and cook 2 minutes less than the package instructions. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the pasta water before draining.
  • In a large room-temperature saucepan, add the olive oil and garlic. Turn on the heat to medium and allow the garlic to cook until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the crushed red pepper flakes, then add the spinach and artichokes and saute 2 to 3 minutes. Add about 3/4 cup pasta water and the cream cheese and dried basil to the saucepan and allow the cream cheese to melt, 3 to 4 minutes. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup more of the pasta water if necessary to thin out the sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the grated Parmesan.
  • Add the rigatoni to the sauce and stir to coat. Transfer to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish (if your pan is oven-safe, you can skip this step). Top with the shredded mozzarella. Broil on high until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

THE BEST SPINACH ARTICHOKE DIP



The Best Spinach Artichoke Dip image

This is our best version of the classic party dip. It's savory and creamy with a slight tang from sour cream and Parmesan -- so hard to resist. We like to use frozen whole leaf spinach and chop it ourselves for more control over the finished texture of the dish.

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Nonstick cooking spray
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, grated
One 10-ounce box frozen leaf spinach, thawed, drained, squeezed dry and coarsely chopped (see Cook's Note)
One 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained well and coarsely chopped
1/2 cup shredded whole-milk mozzarella
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crackers, chips or toasted bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 1-quart baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Put the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise and garlic in a large bowl. Mix vigorously until combined and smooth. (If you prefer, you can use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.) Add the spinach to the cream cheese mixture, breaking it up as you add it. Add the artichokes, mozzarella and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan, mixing to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with the remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan.
  • Bake until the dip begins to bubble, 20 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and continue to cook, keeping an eye on it so it doesn't burn, until the top is golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve warm with crackers, chips or toasted bread.
