- 5 ounces canned Crab Meat drained and picked over
- 2 teaspoons diced Onion
- 2 dashes Tabasco Sauce or other Hot Sauce, of choice
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese softened to room temperature
- 2 teaspoons diced Red Pepper
- 2 teaspoons diced Green Pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning
- 3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons White Wine
- 2 teaspoons diced Tomato
- 1 tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese
- 2 teaspoons chopped Scallion
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan Cheese to top
- Paprika to taste, to top
In a small mixing bowl add all ingredients, except 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese and paprika. Mix well.
Spoon mixture into a small, over-safe casserole-style serving dish.
Place dish in microwave and cook on medium power for about 4 minutes, until cheese has melted and just starts to bubble.
Carefully remove from microwave (the dish will be very hot!) and immediately sprinkle with 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese.
Turn oven on high broil.
Place dish into oven and broil just until the cheese on top melts to your liking. Watch closely and do not burn.
Carefully remove from oven. Sprinkle with paprika.
Serve hot (Be sure to warn your guests!) with chips, pitas, toast points and/or other "dippers" of choice.
