A few weeks ago the One Good Thing by Jillee team went out to lunch at a restaurant called McGrath’s Fish House after I had a Saturday speaking engagement. As one of our appetizers, we ordered their famous crab & artichoke dip which we all went quite crazy over! It was SO good we finished every last speck and then unanimously decided that somehow we had to re-create it for the website! Thankfully Kaitlyn took on the task! :-)
Kaitlyn writes……… We’ve all had dips like this before but there was just something different about this one. It was extra creamy and had incredible flavor. I knew I had to try and recreate it at home and I think I actually got pretty close! This would be the perfect snack to dig-in to during the Super Bowl today, so after you read this, go grab the car keys and head to the store!
Crab & Artichoke Dip
Adapted from Food.com and Eat Drink Merry Utah
Ingredients:
- 1 cup mayonnaise (homemade mayo really takes it over the top!)
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 2 1/2 cups shredded parmesan cheese
- 1/3 cup diced yellow onion
- 1/3 cup diced celery
- 1/3 cup diced green onions
- 3/4 cup diced red pepper
- 3 cloves garlic, diced
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 1 teaspoon Tabasco
- (2) 14 oz cans artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped
- 1 lb crab meat
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise, and 2 cups of parmesan cheese in a stand mixer until well combined.
Mix in the onion, celery, green onions, red pepper, garlic, lemon and tabasco.
Finally, add the artichoke hearts and crab meat. Mix on low until combined.
Transfer the dip to a medium sized baking dish.
Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until the dip is hot and bubbly. Sprinkle the remaining parmesan cheese over the top of the dip.
Turn the oven up to broil and bake the dip for 2-3 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Serve with your choice of chips or better yet – make some parmesan crostini! I found this perfect pre-chopped french bread in the bakery of my local grocery store.
To make the crostini – spread a bit of butter on each piece of bread, then sprinkle with garlic powder and shredded parmesan cheese. Bake at 425 degrees for 8-10 minutes or until crispy.
The crispy crostini is the perfect vehicle for the delivery of this gooey dip to your awaiting mouth! :-)
