A delicious and easy-to-make Mexican-inspired dip perfect for parties or gatherings.
Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned.
Break the beef into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Use a spoon or tilt the skillet to remove the fat carefully.
Stir in the taco seasoning and a splash of water, cooking until well combined.
Adding water helps the seasoning coat the beef evenly.
Mix in the green chilies and hot sauce to taste.
Adjust the amount of hot sauce based on your spice preference.
Add the shredded cheese gradually, stirring until melted.
Adding the cheese in batches ensures it melts smoothly.
Remove from heat and fold in the sour cream until creamy.
Mix gently to maintain the creamy texture.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and serve warm with tortilla chips.
Garnish with chopped cilantro or green onions for a fresh touch.
