This will get your cholesterol on the rise, but what a way to splurge! For company, serve in small individual casseroles…it’s so rich, it’s best as a side dish rather than a main dish. It goes great with steak or pork tenderloin (you needed more cholesterol, right? Read more ?) Ingredients:
8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms, optional |
1 onion, diced finely |
1 cup finely chopped celery |
1 can water-chestnuts, diced |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/2 pound best quality crab meat |
1/2 pound fresh cooked medium shrimp, coarsely chopped |
3/4 cup mayonnaise (do not substitute) |
1/4 cup half-and-half |
1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan |
1/2 teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as old bay) |
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt or powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
topping |
1 cup crushed garlic croutons |
2 tablespoons melted butter |
Directions:
1. Sauté mushrooms, onions, celery and water chestnuts in 1 tablespoon butter.
2. Remove pan from heat; add crab and shrimp.
3. Blend together mayonnaise, half-and-half, parmesan and seasonings; stir into seafood mixture.
4. Spoon the mixture into a well buttered medium casserole dish, or individual casserole dishes.
5. Sprinkle top with crushed croutons, and drizzle melted butter over the crumbs.
