This is great for a dressing, stuffing, as a bed for Shrimp Scampi, or by itself. You can buy those little crab shells to stuff and broil, mold it into a loaf pan and bake, or use it to dress any main meat entree. This is a recipe from my wife's mother's collection.

3 Tbsp lemon juice

Steps:

  • 1. DRESSING:
  • 2. mix creole seasoning and italian seasoning with breadcrumbs,then add onion,bell pepper, and last mayonnaise.Then gently fold in crab meat being careful not to break up lumps of crab. meat.refrigerate I like to make my dressing the day before or the morning of my dinner,it gives the seasoning time to marry together.
  • 3. LEMON,GARLIC,BUTTER SAUCE:
  • 4. In small skillet, cook garlic in olive oil until tender (careful not to burn) add butter,creole seasoning,lemon juice and zest, simmer for 2 min.

  • 7. If using filets, place one filet on baking pan cover with dressing, top with filet,spoon sauce over filets. cook as above.
  • 8. TIPS: If you use canned crab be sure to drain off the water in can and rainse the crab at least 3 times to get rid of the can smell and taste.
  • 9. In the dressing you can add small cooked shrimp or cooked crawfish tails, I love to change it around.
  • 10. I like to serve mine with a greek salad and hard greek rolls,or a twice baked potato, tossed spinch salad, and garlic bread.
  • 11. You can also make crab meat rolls,with thin filets, just place dressing on the filet and roll it up then bake with the sauce over it.

Tips:

  • Use fresh crabmeat: Fresh crabmeat has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than canned or frozen crabmeat. If you're using canned or frozen crabmeat, be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overcook the dressing: Crabmeat is a delicate protein, so it's important not to overcook it. Overcooked crabmeat will become tough and rubbery.
  • Use a variety of seasonings: Crabmeat dressing is a versatile dish that can be seasoned in a variety of ways. Some popular seasonings include Old Bay seasoning, celery salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
  • Add some vegetables: Vegetables can add flavor, texture, and color to crabmeat dressing. Some popular vegetables to add include celery, onion, green bell pepper, and carrots.
  • Serve the dressing warm: Crabmeat dressing is best served warm, so it's important to make sure it's heated through before serving.
