Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoon butter
- 1/2 cup onion diced
- 1 tick celery diced
- 1/4 cup bell pepper diced (any color)
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 2 Tablespoon mayonnaise
- 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce or ¼ teaspoon cayenne powder
- salt and pepper
- 1 egg beaten
- 1 Tablespoon chopped parsley or 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 8 ounces crab meat lump style
- 1/2 cup fresh breadcrumbs lightly toasted
- 1 Tablespoons butter melted
- 1/4 cup panko or Italian breadcrumbs, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
- Melt 2 Tablespoons butter and sautee the onion, celery, bell pepper and garlic and cook until softened but not brown. Remove from the heat and let cool. Move to refrigerator (or even freezer if you watch carefully) for faster cooling.
- Whisk together mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, hot sauce or cayenne, salt and pepper in a bowl. Adjust the seasonings as desired. Add the egg, crab, parsley, breadcrumbs and cooled onion mixture. Fold together gently to keep crab lumps intact.
- Spray baking dishes with non-stick spray or spread with butter. Divide the crab mixture into prepared baking dishes (or larger casserole). Prepare the topping by mixing the melted butter into the panko breadcrumbs. Sprinkle over the crab mixture.
- Set into a rimmed baking sheet and bake until warmed through and golden, 15 to 18 minutes.
