Seafood Spinach Artichoke Dip

1.Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2.In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth and creamy using a hand mixer or whisk.

3.Add 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper to the cream cheese mixture. Stir until well incorporated.

4.Fold in the chopped shrimp, lump crab meat, sautéed spinach, chopped artichoke hearts, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Mix gently to combine all ingredients evenly without breaking up the seafood too much.

5.Transfer the mixture into a 9-inch oven-safe baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

6.Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese evenly over the top of the dip.

7.Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the cheese on top is golden brown.

8.Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes. Garnish with additional chopped parsley before serving.

9.Serve warm with assorted crackers or toasted baguette slices for dipping.
