Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup chopped onions
1 cup chopped red bell peppers
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon Emeril's Original Essence
1 pound cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon minced scallions
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked through for shells and cartilage
1/2 cup saltine or butter cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Toast points or crackers, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, bell peppers, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon Essence. Cook, stirring, until vegetables are soft, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set vegetables aside.

This hot crab dip is the worst! It's bland and flavorless. I would not recommend it.

I tried making this hot crab dip but it didn't turn out well. The cheese didn't melt properly and the crab was overcooked.

This hot crab dip is a little too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably make it again with less cayenne pepper.
