Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    Peel and devein the jumbo shrimp, leaving the tails on. Make a shallow cut along the back to open them slightly for stuffing.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, combine the lump crab meat, cream cheese, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, Old Bay seasoning, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Mix well and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

    Stuff the Shrimp

    Carefully stuff each jumbo shrimp with the crab mixture, pressing gently to ensure it holds together.
