Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 8 oz cream cheese ((softened))
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 14 oz can artichoke hearts ((quartered, sliced))
  • 1 Tbsp garlic ((minced))
  • 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese ((reserve about 2 Tbsp for sprinkling on top))
  • 1/4 cup Romano cheese
  • 1 cup lobster meat ((cooked, chopped))
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • salt & pepper ((to taste))

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C ).
  • In a medium mixing bowl, break up the cream cheese and stir until smooth and creamy enough to blend well with the remaining ingredients.
  • Add mayonnaise and stir until well blended, then add the cut artichokes, garlic, and both Parmesan and Romano cheeses as well as seasoning with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Fold in diced lobster meat, just enough to distribute the lobster throughout the dip without breaking up the meat.
  • Transfer the dip to a small casserole dish, sprinkle with smoked paprika, and bake at 350 degrees F ( 175 degrees C ) for 20 - 25 minutes. The edges should bubble lightly and the top should brown slightly.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes, before serving warm.
