Fried Pickle and Ranch Dip
This copycat Fried Pickle and Ranch Dip tastes even better than the store-bought varieties. Full of dill pickle flavor, zesty ranch seasoning, and so creamy, this dip is even topped with a seasoned breadcrumb topping for that crispy, fried taste!
Ingredients
Crispy Panko Topping
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or butter)
- 3/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (if unseasoned, add salt and pepper)
Fried Pickle and Ranch Dip
- 1 cup sour cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened to room temperature)
- 1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix
- 8 ounces Dill Pickle Relish (or 8 ounces chopped dill pickles)
- 1 tbsp chives (diced)
- 2 tbsp pickle juice (right from the jar!)
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
Instructions
Make the Panko Topping
- In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and add in breadcrumbs. Watching carefully, toast the breadcrumbs until lightly golden brown (about 2 minutes). Remove from skillet and pour into a bowl.
Assemble Fried Pickle and Ranch Dip
- Using a food processor or mixing bowl with a hand mixer, combine sour cream, cream cheese, ranch seasoning packet, dill pickle relish, chives, pickle juice, garlic and 1/4 cup of the panko topping. Stop and scrape down sides if needed. Be sure ingredients are fully combined and dip is smooth and creamy. Refrigerate while prepping topping.
- When ready to serve, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of crispy panko breadcrumb topping over the fried pickle dip and serve with your favorite potato chips, veggie slices, pretzels, etc!
