This is a zesty, fresh-tasting dip; perfect for Superbowl Sunday, or any party occasion or potluck! I used leftover peel-and-eat shrimp, but thawed cooked shrimp would be fine. The cream cheese neutralizes a lot of the pepper, making a mildly spicy dip. Ingredients:
1 lb cooked shrimp |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese |
1/4 cup sour cream |
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped |
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, minced |
2 tablespoons lemon juice or 1/2 large lemon, juice of |
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
salt and pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Peel cooked shrimp, if necessary. 2. Chop shrimp into 1/4 inch pieces. 3. In a medium mixing bowl, combine all ingredients. 4. Serve with good sourdough bread for spreading. |
