Crab on Crackers Hors d'Oeuvres with a Twist image

This hors d'Oeuvre is relatively easy to produce, and makes a great way to keep your guests happy while waiting for the main event. And with only six ingredients, it's a snap to put together. Actually, I'm make a bunch of these up for one of my clients, and I'll probably save a few for my July 4th party coming up this...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 oz fresh crabmeat, picked over for shells
3 Tbsp mayo
1 tsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 pinch cayenne pepper
4 slice bacon, thick sliced
15-20 slice colby cheese, cut into 1-inch squares about 1/8 inch thick

Steps:

  • 1. Gather all your ingredients
  • 2. Sauté the bacon until crisp, but not too crisp
  • 3. Remove from pan and allow to drain and cool on some paper towels
  • 4. Chef's Note: Reserve the bacon grease for another use (I'm planning on sautéing a couple of chicken breasts with it... but that's another recipe).
  • 5. Chop the bacon into small pieces and reserve.
  • 6. Add the mayo, lemon juice, salt & pepper (to taste), and the cayenne pepper to a bowl, and mix thoroughly.
  • 7. Carefully fold in the crab until fully incorporated.
  • 8. Place a heaping teaspoon of the crab mixture on a cracker, and add a few pieces of chopped bacon.
  • 9. Cover with a piece of the cheese, and place in a broiler and broil until the cheese bubbles and begins to brown.
  • 10. Serve with a lemon or lime wedge. Enjoy.
  • 11. Keep the faith and keep cooking.

I thought the recipe was a bit bland. I added some Old Bay seasoning and it really improved the flavor.
