This fried pickle dip is the ultimate appetizer for the dill pickle-lover! It's a creamy cream cheese and sour cream-based dip that combines fried pickle flavor, ranch dip, and fresh herbs! 

Ingredients

  • 1-2 tablespoons butter
  • 3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs 
  • 2 cups full-fat sour cream (16 ounces)
  • 1 1/2 cups full-fat cream cheese spread (12 ounces, room temperature)
  • 1 package ranch seasoning (1 ounce)
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill -  chopped
  • 1 cup green onions (about 5 green onions)  -chopped
  • 2/3 cup fresh parsley - chopped
  • 3 tablespoons pickle juice
  • 1 cup finely diced high-quality dill pickles - plus 1/4 -1/2 more for garnish (1 16-ounce jar)

Instructions

  1. In a food processor or large blender, blend the sour cream, cream cheese, and ranch seasoning until smooth. Add in the dill, green onion, parsley, 1 cup of chopped pickles, and pickle juice, and blend until smooth again. Chill for 20-30 minutes to firm up the dip and let the flavors meld.
  2. Heat the butter in a large frying pan on medium heat. Once melted, add in the panko bread crumbs and cook until toasted and lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
  3.  Fold in 2/3 of the bread crumbs into the dip. Serve the remainder on top of the dip with the remaining chopped pickles. 
  4. Serve with potato chips and veggies. 

Notes

* I used Hidden Valley Ranch Seasoning pack 

If making ahead of time, add in the bread crumbs until right before serving. 

This cam be made up to 3 days ahead of time.
