Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 8 ounces sour cream
- 2 cups or 16 ounces of shredded sharp cheddar cheese, Mexican blend cheese, or pepperjack cheese
- 1 pound cooked boudin
- 1 teaspoon or more of Cajun seasoning blend
- 4-ounce can of chopped green chilies
- .5 teaspoon salt
- 3 slices of bacon, cooked crisp and chopped or crumbled
- 2 green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F and prepare a pie dish, medium-sized baking pan, or casserole dish with spray oil.
- Split the skin of the boudin all the way down the length of the sausage and scoop out the filling into a small bowl.
- Cream the cream cheese with a hand or stand mixer in a large bowl until smooth.
- Add sour cream to the cream cheese and blend together with the mixer.
- Stir in 1 1/2 cups of the cheese, boudin meat, seasonings, green chilies, 2 crumbled bacon slices, and half of the green onions until they are well incorporated.
- Spoon the dip mixture into the prepared pan.
- Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until the boudin dip bubbles on the edges.
- Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the top with 1/2 cup cheese, and the rest of the bacon and green onions.
- Serve warm with baguette slices, chips, or crackers.
Notes
- Another garnish besides the bacon and green onion is crumbled cracklings, which are fried pork skins.
- Cook the boudin on the grill until the outside is brown and crisp or in the air fryer at 375 ° F for 10 to 15 minutes; so easy!
