Time 22m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (6 ounce) packages frozen crabmeat
3 tablespoons butter or 3 tablespoons margarine
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup light cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained (I like to use fresh mushrooms and different ones at times to change the flavor of the dish)
2 grated onions
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika (I like szedged or Tones because the flavor is richer)
2 tablespoons white wine (optional)
1/4 cup fine dry breadcrumb

Steps:

  • Defrost the crabmeat.
  • Melt the butter in saucepan.
  • Stir in the flour and keep stirring until smooth.
  • Gradually add milk, cream, and the chicken broth.
  • Keep stirring over a low heat to keep the sauce smooth and you want it to thicken.
  • Now add your cheese, mushrooms, onion, salt, paprika, and wine.
  • Stir the mixture until the cheese is melted.
  • Now stir in the crabmeat gently.
  • Pour mixture into a well greased 1 1/2 qt/ casserole.
  • Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top.
  • Bake at 400* for about 10-15 min.
  • or until the top is golden brown.
  • Serve over hot cooked rice.

I'm allergic to crab, so I used shrimp instead. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out creamy at all.

I found that the crab meat was a bit overcooked, but the rest of the dish was perfect.
