Preparation Steps
Prepare the Crab Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the Peeky Toe crab meat, minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Gently fold the ingredients together to avoid breaking the crab meat.
Melt the Butter
In a saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Once melted, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
Add the melted butter to the crab mixture and fold in the bread crumbs until everything is well combined.
Transfer to Baking Dish
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Transfer the crab mixture into a greased baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the mixture is heated through.
Serve
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, with hot sauce on the side if desired.
