Ingredients
→ Main Ingredients
1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
1 cup lump crab meat, drained
8 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup sour cream
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 green onions or chives, chopped
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning or Cajun seasoning
Salt and black pepper, to taste
½ tsp hot sauce (optional)
Sliced toasted baguette or crackers for serving
Steps
Combine cream cheese, sour cream, garlic, Old Bay seasoning, salt, pepper, and hot sauce (if using) in a bowl. Whip until smooth to create a creamy base.
Gently fold in shrimp, crab, half the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and half the chives to maintain texture.
Spread the mixture into an oven-safe dish and top with the remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake at 190°C (375°F) for 20–25 minutes until hot, bubbly, and golden brown.
Optionally, broil for 1–2 minutes to achieve a golden crust.
Sprinkle the dip with fresh chives or green onions. Serve with toasted baguette slices, crackers, or tortilla chips.
Tips
- Broiling creates a golden brown crust for extra texture.
- Use softened cream cheese for a smoother base.
