If you have been to Champps Americana, you know how addictive their sour cream dip is. On our last trip to New York, we went to one of the outlets, and I fell in love with this dip. I came back home and immediately worked to recreate the recipe in my kitchen. And here we are, with the dip that tastes very close to what is served at Champps. Try it!
About Seasoned Sour Cream (No Mayo)
This Champps copycat Seasoned Sour Cream is the best and a must-try party dip! It uses sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and simple pantry staples. It is easy to make, addictive and comes together in just 5 minutes. This no-mayo dip is best served with chips, crackers, fries, wedges, veggie sticks, or fried appetizers and snacks. Make sure to refrigerate it for a few hours for the flavors to develop nicely. My recipe makes approximately 1 cup of this dip, but you can easily double or triple it.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this no-mayo sour cream dip and waffle fries, just like you get at Champps. You can also replace sour cream with plain Greek yogurt to make the dip healthier. Lemon Juice – Freshly squeezed lemon juice gives a lovely tanginess to the dip. You can also replace lemon juice with lime juice. However, lime juice is tangier than lemon juice. Worcestershire Sauce – It gives the sauce a mix of sweet, spicy, sour, and umami flavors. Seasonings – You will need a mix of seasonings, such as dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and ground black pepper. You can adjust the seasonings according to your taste. For a refreshing flavor, add some fresh herbs such as green onions (scallions), parsley, thyme, cilantro, etc. You can replace smoked paprika with cayenne pepper too. Extra seasonings like taco seasoning or ranch seasoning can also be added to the recipe for a flavor change.
1 cup sour cream 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce ½ teaspoon dried parsley ½ teaspoon garlic powder ½ teaspoon onion powder ½ teaspoon smoked paprika ½ teaspoon salt ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
Mix well using a wire whisk until combined, and refrigerate for a minimum of 1 hour before serving. This sour cream sauce is also a great dip to serve with potato chips, tortilla chips, crackers, Air Fryer Frozen French Fries, sweet potato fries, potato wedges, and Oven Roasted Sweet Potato Wedges. You can serve it with fresh veggies like carrot sticks, cucumbers, celery, red bell pepper, etc, or any of your favorite appetizers or snacks like Cajun Chicken Wings, chicken pakora, etc. You can also use it as a spread for sandwiches, wraps, burgers, or open toasties. Thin it down a little and use it as a salad dressing. This delicious dipping sauce is also a great addition to your Buddha bowls. I also like to serve it with grilled chicken breasts, roasted red potatoes, steamed broccoli, and grilled fish.
Storage Suggestions
Sour Cream with seasoning will last for about one week in an airtight container in the refrigerator if it is made using a freshly opened tub or freshly made sour cream. Use a clean and dry spoon for every use, ensuring it will last longer. It is not recommended to freeze it as the texture and consistency may change upon thawing.
