Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 cup Sour cream
- 16 oz Lump crab meat
- 1 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tbsp Minced garlic
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 2 tsp Cajun seasoning
- 1 tsp Hot sauce
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp Paprika (for garnish)
- 1 batch Crackers or bread slices (for serving)
Instructions
Begin by preparing your crock pot. Lightly grease the inside with a non-stick cooking spray or a small amount of butter to ensure easy cleanup later.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and sour cream. Mix until smooth and well-blended.
Add the lump crab meat, shredded cheddar cheese, minced garlic, lemon juice, Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce into the bowl. Gently fold the ingredients together until fully incorporated.
Transfer the crab dip mixture into the prepared crock pot. Spread it evenly to ensure consistent cooking.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW heat for 2 hours, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
After 2 hours, check the dip. Once the cheese is fully melted and the mixture is hot and bubbling, stir in the chopped green onions for added freshness and flavor.
Taste the dip and adjust seasoning if needed. Add a pinch of salt or an extra dash of hot sauce for more kick, if desired.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl or leave it in the crock pot on the WARM setting for guests to enjoy throughout the gathering.
Garnish the dip with a sprinkle of paprika for a vibrant finishing touch.
Serve the Cajun Crab Dip warm with crackers, bread slices, or vegetable sticks.
