Artichoke dip – and its tasty yet mild flavor – is brought to life with a little jalapeño pepper and paprika boost. The heat does stand out here, so if you prefer a milder level of spiciness with your food, start with only one jalapeño and add to taste. The paprika provides a simmering spice throughout the dip, so every bite has a little extra zing.
It’s perfect cold, and it works just as well slightly warmed up. Serve it with crackers, pita chips, or fresh vegetables. Or use it as a sandwich spread to provide a little fiery kick to your lunch.
