Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz lump crab meat
- 14 oz artichoke hearts (canned, drained, and chopped)
- 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 0.75 cup mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese (shredded)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup bread crumbs (optional, for topping)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (optional, for drizzling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, and lemon juice. Stir until smooth and well mixed.
Add the Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup of the shredded mozzarella, Old Bay seasoning, garlic, and paprika. Mix thoroughly.
Gently fold in the lump crab meat and chopped artichoke hearts, being careful not to break up the crab meat too much.
Pour the mixture into a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish and spread it out evenly.
If using bread crumbs, mix them with the olive oil and sprinkle evenly over the top of the casserole.
Top the casserole with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm. Enjoy!
