Everyone needs a go-to easy and versatile dip recipe – and this is about to become yours! I’ve been making this chip dip for years, and anyone who tries it asks for the recipe. Let me show you how to make the best chip dip ever.
There’s something magical about the combination of a creamy, herbaceous dip with salty, savory chips. They balance each other out perfectly – crisp meets creamy, and it’s always a hit. What I love most about this chip dip is how unassuming it is. I’ve amused myself more than once by setting it out at a gathering and watching the reactions unfold.
This chip dip tastes better after letting it sit because the flavors have time to come together. The recipe instructions recommend letting it sit for at least 30 minutes before serving. If you’re having a party or planning to enjoy it on movie night or by the pool, prepare it the day before. Just make sure it’s stored in a covered container or a bowl covered tightly with wrap – I like to use these beeswax wraps .
Take this dip to the next level by serving it with my homemade potato chips !
Ingredients for the best easy chip dip
This recipe uses just a few ingredients you’re likely to have on hand. To make it, you’ll need:
- Sour cream + mayonnaise – this gives the dip deliciously creamy.
- Lemon juice – helps to brighten the flavor.
- Garlic + onion powder – adds a wonderful savory flavor. To get a little fancier, use finely minced garlic clove and some minced chive.
- Parsley + dill – we use the dried version because we always have them on hand, but fresh is nice too!
- Salt + pepper – just a little helps to bring out the flavor of the other ingredients.
