Cool and creamy, this Creamy Roasted Hatch Chile Dip is filled with the fresh flavors of lime juice and cilantro with a bit of heat from roasted hatch chiles! Just toss all of the ingredients into a blender, blend, and serve!
Hatch chiles are back, and our grocery stores are overflowing with them. Because they are everywhere and usually pretty cheap, it is easy to take advantage of their short season.
One of our favorite ways to enjoy hatch chiles is to roast them and add them to dips and sauces.
That is exactly what I did for this roasted hatch chile dip. The chiles are roasted, skinned, and blended into this cool, creamy dip.
The heat of the chiles is offset by the tangy sour cream and lime juice. Cilantro gives this dip a fresh summery flavor, and salt and pepper are added to bring out the flavor of all ingredients.
It really couldn’t be any easier to make. Just throw all of the ingredients into a food processor or blender and mix until combined. Transfer the dip to a bowl and enjoy!
That’s it. Perfect for serving to last minute guests or preparing during a commercial break of a football game!

The dip was yummy but felt the cilantro overpowered the taste of the peppers. I added three more into the two in the recipe with a tad more lime juice and it was perfect for me!

This is great. I had to make a few substitutions, based on what I had. I substituted plain Greek yogurt for the sour cream, and 5 wedges of light Swiss Laughing Cow cheese for the cream cheese. Other than that, I used hatch chiles that I roasted/peeled myself. OMG this dip is freakin' awesome. I'm totally making it during football (or any) get togethers. I found it on Pinterest, and it's definitely a keeper. Thanks so much!
