Looking for a crowd-pleasing, yet unexpected party app? This 5-ingredient Fried Pickle Dip is guaranteed to add “zing” to any appetizer spread, and it comes together in no time.

“I’ve seen this on social and have wanted to try it for a while and it did not disappoint,” said recipe tester Elizabeth Mervosh. “The dip is seasoned with the perfect amount of dill and has an addictingly salty-briny flavor.”

This recipe incorporates pickle juice and crunchy chopped pickles to bring in full-force pickle flavor. And, the topping of savory toasted breadcrumbs brings in that crunchy “fried” element that makes the appetizer so irresistible. Creamy, tangy, and full of texture, it beats making a batch of deep-fried pickles any day.

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 cup drained and chopped dill pickles, divided, plus 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice (from 1 [16 ounce] jar)
1/4 cup seasoned panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs), toasted
