CRAB AND SHRIMP AU GRATIN DIP

I love this served as a dip with toasted bread rounds or as my mother's generation would say "toast points". Or, serve for lunch, brunch, or dinner with a simple green salad and hot French bread. Cheesy, warm and a bit spicy! Serve with a sparkling wine for a really good time.

CROCK POT SHRIMP AND ARTICHOKE DIP OR CRAB AND ARTICHOKE DIP



Crock Pot Shrimp and Artichoke Dip or Crab and Artichoke Dip image

This is so perfect for entertaining or to serve on Game Day. This dip stays soft and warm the whole time, doesn't get cold and solidified like many other artichoke dips I have made. You can make either the shrimp version or the crab version, or even substitute clams if you prefer. Also, I have added a small can of drained water chestnuts on occasion. ** Also, I use my small slow cooker for this recipe and just leave it on all day - think it's a 2 quart cooker ** One more note - one of my girlfriends loved this so much that she made the recipe as is and served it over linguini for Sunday Pasta.

SHRIMP AND CRAB DIP



Shrimp and Crab Dip image

We had some real bad weather on the coast a few weeks ago and I had lots of leftover seafood in the fridge. I threw the ingredients together in a baking dish and it turned out to be a hit. I've made it three times since then and can't stop eating it. The measurements are not exact as I just sort of toss whatever's on hand and...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pkg cream cheese, cut in cubes
1 c crabmeat, fresh (chopped)
1-2 c cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined, chopped
2 green onions or scallions, chopped fine
1/4 sweet onion, chopped fine
1/2 bell pepper (any color) chopped fine
1/2 tomato, seeded and chopped in small pieces
1 dash(es) old bay seasoning
1 clove garlic, chopped fine or 1/4 tsp garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
1 dash(es) worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Mix all ingredients together in casserole dish and cover. Bake 20-30 minutes until cream cheese is melted and stir.
  • 3. Top with a handful of shredded cheese (I used sharp cheddar). Bake until cheese is melted or broil til golden brown. Serve with nacho chips.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood. Fresh shrimp and crab will give your dip the best flavor. If you can't find fresh seafood, frozen seafood is a good option. Just be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • Don't overcook the seafood. Overcooked seafood is tough and chewy. Cook the shrimp and crab just until they are opaque and cooked through.
  • Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in shrimp and crab dip, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar cheese or a creamy Gruyère cheese are both good options.
  • Add some spice. If you like a little spice, add some cayenne pepper or Old Bay seasoning to the dip. You can also add some chopped jalapeños or green onions.
  • Serve the dip warm. Shrimp and crab dip is best served warm. You can keep it warm in a slow cooker or in a chafing dish.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and crab dip is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a dip that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give shrimp and crab dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
