- 1 pound lump crab meat, picked over for shells and cartilage
- 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
- 1/2 cup chopped pickled jalapenos
- 1/4 pound Monterrey Jack cheese with jalapenos, grated
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 ounces Parmigiana-Reggiano cheese, grated
- 1 recipe Toasted Croutons
Combine the crab meat garlic, jalapenos, Monterrey Jack, Worcestershire, hot sauce, salt, and mayonnaise in a medium-size mixing bowl. Toss gently to mix. Spoon the mixture into a medium-size mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly on the top of the crab meat mixture. Bake until golden brown and bubbly, about 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes before serving with the croutons.
