  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Cook the bacon:

Brown the sausage:

Season and cook shrimp:

  • Toss shrimp with ½ tablespoon Cajun seasoning. Add to the skillet and cook just until starting to turn pink, about 2–3 minutes. Remove and set aside.

Cook the vegetables:

  • Add onion, celery, and bell pepper to the skillet. Cook until softened, about 5–7 minutes.

Add garlic & seasoning:

  • Stir in garlic and remaining ½ tablespoon Cajun seasoning. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.

Combine the dip:

  • Stir in Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, parsley, bacon, sausage, shrimp, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Parmesan, and mozzarella until fully combined.

Bake:

  • Transfer skillet to a preheated 350°F oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until bubbly and fully melted.
