How To Prepare Spicy Crab Dip ?

Preparation:  

Preparation time: 25 mins

Cooking time: 15 mins

Serving: 4-6

Ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
• 4 scallions (green and white parts), thinly sliced
• 2 large cloves garlic, minced
• kosher salt
• 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons Tabasco
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 10 ounces cooked fresh crab meat, picked free of any shells
• 1 large lemon, cut into wedges
• 1 sleeve butter crackers (35 to 40 crackers)

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 F.
2. In a small sauté pan set over medium heat, melt the butter, and then add the scallions and garlic along with a pinch of salt. Add a splash of water and cook, stirring occasionally, until the scallions and garlic become tender without becoming overly brown, 3-5 minutes. When the water is cooked out and the scallions are translucent, remove the pan from the heat and set it aside to cool.
3. In a large bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Tabasco, cayenne, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Put the crabmeat in a medium bowl and season it with a pinch of salt and a little lemon juice; then gently stir the crabmeat into the dip. Spoon the dip into a 1-quart (4-cup) baking dish.
4. Place the baking dish in the oven and bake until the dip is warmed through, 20-25 minutes. Squeeze the remaining lemon wedges over the top and serve warm, with the crackers alongside.
