    Recipe Introduction


    Louisiana's favorite son -- Food Network host Emeril Lagasse -- has cooked up this sweet and spicy dip for Super Bowl XXXVI festivities in New Orleans.

    List of Ingredients




    Hot corn dip with crispy tortilla chips

    Prep time: 30 minutes. Cook time: 27 minutes. Yields: 6 cups dip; 12 to 18 servings.

    2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
    3 1/2 cups corn kernels (from 4 ears fresh white or yellow corn if available)
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    1/8 teaspoon freshly grated black pepper
    1 cup finely chopped yellow onions
    1/2 cup finely chopped red bell peppers
    1/4 cup chopped green onions (green and white parts)
    1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
    2 teaspoons minced garlic
    1 cup mayonnaise
    4 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
    4 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
    1/4 teaspoon cayenne
    Tortilla chips, for dipping


    Recipe



    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

    Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corn, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the kernels turn deep golden brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl.

    Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the skillet. Add the yellow onions and bell peppers and cook, stirring often, until the onions are wilted, about 2 minutes. Add the green onions, jalapeno and garlic and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened. Transfer to the blow with the corn. Add the mayonnaise, 1/2 of the Monterey Jack cheese, 1/2 of the cheddar cheese and the cayenne, and mix well. Pour into an 8-inch-square baking dish and sprinkle the remaining cheese on top.

    Bake until bubbly and golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve hot with chips.
