Creamy Chicken, Spinach & Artichoke Dip
This Creamy Chicken, Spinach & Artichoke dip is a real crowd pleaser (and no one will ever guess that it’s Dairy Free and Whole30!). It’s deliciously creamy with chunks of chicken, artichoke hearts and spinach. This dip is Paleo, Keto, Whole30, Dairy Free, Gluten Free and SCD Legal.
This creamy chicken, spinach & artichoke dip is perfect for serving at a big gathering (like the Super Bowl this weekend!). It’s creamy and packed with chunks of artichoke, chicken and spinach making it heartier than your average hot dip. If you are planning on bringing this to an event, you can make the dip the day before (up to the end of step 4) and then quickly heat it before serving the next day. I like serving this with crackers, but it’s also great with veggies, grain free bread, or even on its own by the spoonful (no judgement here!).

Creamy Chicken, Spinach & Artichoke Dip
Ingredients
- 1/2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion finely diced
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2 1/2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 14oz can artichoke hearts
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1/4 tsp chili powder
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast (or 1/2 cup grated parmesan for SCD)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius)
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet on medium high heat. Add in the diced onion, sprinkle with salt and cook for 5 minutes until the onion begins to soften.
- Add in the spinach and stir the mixture to help the spinach wilt. After 3 minutes the spinach will begin to wilt, add in the roughly chopped artichoke hearts and crushed garlic and continue to cook for another 3 minutes.
- Transfer the spinach and artichoke mixture from the skillet to a large bowl and add in the chicken, mayonnaise, lemon juice, chili powder and nutritional yeast (or parmesan). Stir to ensure everything is well mixed and then transfer it to an oven proof dish.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until the dip is bubbling and hot the whole way through. Serve warm with crackers or veggies for dipping.
Delicious and so moreish. It got polished off by adults and kids alike. Great with crackers or crudités.
So delicious!!
Wow! I never thought it would be possible to have a dairy free artichoke dip. That is so cool! I can t wait to try this at home. I definitely miss these types of delicious dips when on Keto diets. Thank you so much for sharing!
What do you advise for dippers? Is there any such thing as Whole 30 snack crackers? I live in the US, thanks!
Delicious!!! So yummy! Another hubby approved appetizer! I will be making this again for sure!!!
This sounds amazing!! I already have frozen chopped spinach. Do you think it would work if I thawed and drained it?
