Step 1
Add the diced jalapeno peppers to a large bowl with mayonnaise, garlic powder, and paprika.
Step 2
Stir in the cheddar cheese until the dip is well combined. Editor's Tip: We like to keep this as a separate step because the cheese shreds should remain as intact as possible for authentic Kenai dip. Overstirring will break the shreds.
Step 3
If desired, top the Kenai cheese dip with additional jalapenos. Serve this tangy, cheesy dip with chips or crackers. Editor’s Tip: Many Alaskans prefer to eat this dip well-chilled. For an authentic experience, cover the dip and pop it in the fridge for a few hours before enjoying it.
