SHRIMP SCAMPI DIP

One of the best (and easiest) dips I've ever had, baked to absolute creamy, cheesy perfection!

INGREDIENTS

• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 8 ounces medium shrimp, peeled, deveined and roughly chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more, to taste
• 1/4 cup white wine*
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste.
• 4 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
• 1/4 cup sour cream
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9-inch baking dish or coat with nonstick spray.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add shrimp, garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in wine and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Bring to a simmer; remove from heat and stir in cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, parsley, 1/4 cup mozzarella and Parmesan.
• Spread mixture into the prepared baking dish; sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella. Place into oven and bake until bubbly and golden, about 10-12 minutes.
