Instructions
Preparation and Mixing
- After the 3 medium red bell peppers are roasted and peeled, pat them dry with paper towels and chop them finely.
- Pat the chopped red bell peppers dry again to remove excess moisture and keep the dip from becoming too soupy.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped peppers with 16 oz sour cream, 2 tablespoons chili powder, 1 clove garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Mix all ingredients thoroughly until well combined and smooth.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for several hours to allow the flavors to meld before serving.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: This dip is best made several hours or up to a day in advance to let the flavors fully develop. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
