Ingredients

Dip

  • 1 1/2 cups sour cream
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped dill pickles
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh dill
  • 2 Tbsp ranch seasoning
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt or more, to taste
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper or more, to taste

Topping

  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup plain panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup chopped dill pickles

Instructions

Mix dip

  • In a medium mixing bowl, add the sour cream, mayonnaise, 1 1/2 cups chopped pickles, chopped dill, ranch seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Use a rubber spatula and mix well to combine.
  • Cover with plastic wrap or a tight-fitting lid, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or until well chilled.

Making topping

  • Place a skillet on the stovetop and heat over MED heat. Once hot, add butter and melt.
  • Once butter is melted, add panko and 1/2 cup chopped pickles.
  • Lower the heat to MED LOW and cook the mixture, stirring constantly to prevent burning, for about 6-8 minutes, or until golden brown.

Combine and serve

  • Let the topping mixture cool a bit, then add to the top of the chilled dip.
  • Serve cold, garnished with more dill and pickle slices if you'd like, with desired dippers (chips, pretzels, pita, etc).

Notes

  1. This recipe makes approximately 2 - 2.5 cups, which I've estimated will feed about 8, but the exact number of servings and serving size is up to you.
