Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup cooked and peeled shrimp
- 1 cup lump crab meat
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tbsp chopped green onions
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 package baguette slices or crackers
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic for about 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant. Remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the sautéed garlic, half of the Parmesan cheese, and half of the mozzarella cheese.
Add the lump crab meat and chopped shrimp to the mixture, stirring gently to avoid breaking up the seafood too much.
Season the mixture with lemon juice, hot sauce (if using), paprika, salt, and black pepper. Fold in the chopped green onions.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 8x8-inch baking dish or a similarly sized oven-safe dish.
Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the top is lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and allow the dip to cool slightly for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with additional chopped green onions and a sprinkle of paprika, if desired.
Serve warm with baguette slices, crackers, or your favorite dippers.
