Stuffed Crab Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the crab meat, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, celery, green bell pepper, onion, garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix until well combined.

  2. 2

    Stuff the Crab

    Spoon the filling mixture into crab shells or a baking dish, pressing down gently to compact the filling.

  3. 3

    Bake

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the stuffed crab in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is golden brown on top.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve warm.
