This is a wonderful recipe that I took from the famous Paula Deen, and then made a few minor changes. Trust me when I say that it is absolutely delicious.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup green onion, with tops (scallion, chopped)
2 teaspoons garlic (minced)
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups fish stock (not fish sauce)
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk
1 lb crabmeat (backfin or lump, picked free of shells)
1/4 cup cream sherry (or a little more)
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
1 cup freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
1/2 cup fresh chives (chopped)
Directions:
1. Saute chopped green onion and garlic in butter until tender.
2. Stir in flour, stirring until well blended.
3. Slowly add 2 cups of the fish stock, continuing to cook until smooth and bubbly.
4. Slowly add cream and milk.
5. Stir in crabmeat. Add sherry, lemon-pepper seasoning, salt and pepper. Simmer until piping hot. Adjust seasoning to taste.
6. Serve in bowls topped with cheese and chives.
