Clam Dip Ingredients

  • 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese
  • ⅓ cup sour cream
  • 2 tablespoons sliced green onions
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½1 teaspoon hot sauce
  • 1 (6.5-ounce) can chopped clams, drained except for 1 tablespoon of juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Beat the cream cheese: Use a hand mixer to beat the cream cheese in a medium-sized bowl until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.
  2. Mix in flavorings: Stir in the sour cream, sliced green onions, Worcestershire sauce, fresh lemon juice, and hot sauce until all ingredients are fully combined.
  3. Add clams and seasoning: Gently fold in the chopped clams along with the reserved tablespoon of clam juice. Season the mixture with salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  4. Serve: Transfer the clam dip to a serving bowl and serve chilled with salty potato chips, butter crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce to control the spice level to your preference.
  • For a thicker dip, use less of the clam juice.
  • Can be refrigerated for up to 2 days to allow flavors to meld.
  • Serve chilled for best flavor and texture.
  • Great accompaniment for casual gatherings or game day snacks.
