Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup sundried tomatoes in oil, chopped
• 2 teaspoons reserved oil from sundried tomatoes or plain olive oil
• 1/2 large shallot, finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• 6 ounces roasted red peppers, drained and chopped
• 3/8 cup sour cream
• 1/3 cup cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon hot sauce
• 2 tablespoons parsley flakes

Recipe Notes

• Add more cream cheese for a thicker consistency.

• For a little more spice, increase the amount of hot sauce.

• If you don't have a shallot, you could use red onion or even chopped green onions.

• Fresh parsley can be substituted for dry. Just use a little more of it. 

Here’s how to make it:

1. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add shallot and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often. Add sundried tomatoes. Stir constantly for about 1 minute. Add wine and stir until the wine is nearly evaporated.
2. Add roasted peppers, sour cream, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic, hot sauce and 1 tablespoon of parsley. Reduce heat to low. The mixture will be thick, so stir constantly for 3 to 4 minutes until it’s well-combined and smooth and the dip is heated through.
3. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley before serving.
