Time 35m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces lump crab meat, picked over
2/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Madeira wine
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 pinch ground white pepper
1 clove garlic
1/2 bunch parsley
1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, plus more for garnish
1 1/2 quarts water
2 lemons, divided
2 cans artichoke hearts packed in water (14oz can), or 6 fresh artichokes (see Step 2 for preparation)
White bread (such as Pullman loaf)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Dip: Preheat oven to 525 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, add crab meat, mayonnaise, Madeira, salt, paprika, cayenne, and white pepper. Mince the garlic (you should have about 1 tablespoon) and add to the bowl. Crumple up the parsley and finely chop it; add 3 tablespoons to the bowl and reserve the rest. Add the cheese to the bowl and set aside.
  • (Note: If using canned artichokes, skip to Step 4.) Prepare fresh artichokes: Peel outer layers of the artichoke to reveal the tender leaves at the stem. Place the artichoke on its side and slice off the top third or so. Continue to peel away the darker outer layers, revealing the pale yellow interior. Make acidulated water: Add water to a bowl. Squeeze lemon juice from 1½ lemons into the water, followed by the squeezed lemon halves themselves. This acidulated water will be used to prevent the artichoke from oxidizing and turning brown. Set aside. Squeeze the juice from the remaining lemon half directly into the dip.
  • Continue breaking down the artichoke: Cut most of the stem off. Then use a paring knife to trim away the tough fibrous leaves around the stem. Slice off about an inch of the top to reveal the inner purple choke; remove the pale, tender layers surrounding the choke and place them in the acidulated water. Next, place the trimmed artichoke in the palm of your hand. Use a paring knife at an angle to cut all the way around the choke to remove it. (Don't cut too deep, or the tender heart will be removed, too!) Continue to scrape to remove all of the fuzzy hairs; a spoon works well, too. Slice what remains into ½-inch pieces and place into the acidulated water. Repeat with remaining artichokes. (Note: Artichoke pieces will need to be steamed or boiled for 10-15 minutes before adding them to the dip.)
  • Canned artichokes: Make sure the hearts are well drained. Slice them diagonally into ¼-inch strips; add to the bowl with the other dip ingredients. Gently stir to combine, being careful not to break up the lump crab meat. Evenly spread mixture into a baking dish. Top with a pinch of paprika, some more chopped parsley, a sprinkling of salt, and 1-2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan. Baking the dip: Place baking dish on the upper rack of the oven and immediately turn the temperature down to 400 F. Bake uncovered until brown and bubbly, 20 minutes.
  • Toast points: Meanwhile, slice bread into ¾-inch slices. Thinly spread butter onto both sides of each slice. Trim the crusts, then slice in half diagonally to get two triangles per slice. Place on a baking sheet and toast in the oven at 400 degrees F until golden, about 10 minutes.
  • Place toast points on a serving plate next to bubbling hot dip. Heap a spoonful of dip on toast and eat immediately.

Categories     Condiment/Spread     Dairy     Shellfish     Vegetable     Bake     Cocktail Party     Buffet     Parmesan     Crab     Artichoke     Bell Pepper     Winter     Jalapeño     Gourmet

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (9-ounce) package frozen artichoke hearts
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/4 cups half-and-half
3 scallions, thinly sliced
2 ounces finely grated parmesan (1/2 cup)
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, or to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons minced drained pickled jalapeño chiles
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
3/4 pound jumbo lump crabmeat, picked over
Accompaniment: benne seed pita toasts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • Cook artichoke hearts according to package instructions, then drain well and finely chop. Cook bell pepper in 1 tablespoon butter in a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in artichokes and transfer mixture to a bowl.
  • Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in saucepan over moderately low heat, then add flour and cook roux, stirring, 3 minutes. Add half-and-half in a stream, whisking, and bring to a boil, whisking. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking, 3 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in artichoke mixture, scallions, 1/3 cup parmesan, lemon juice, jalapeños, salt, and celery salt. Gently stir in crab. Transfer to a buttered 1 1/2-quart shallow baking dish and sprinkle with remaining parmesan.
  • Bake dip in middle of oven until bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your crab, artichoke, and Parmesan cheese, the better your appetizer will taste. Fresh crab meat and artichoke hearts are ideal, but you can also use canned or frozen if necessary.
  • Don't overcook the crab: Crab meat is delicate and can easily become tough if it's overcooked. Be careful not to cook it for more than 5-7 minutes.
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese is a key ingredient in this recipe, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that has a strong flavor. Grated Parmesan cheese is best, but you can also use shredded Parmesan cheese if you don't have a grater.
  • Don't skimp on the butter: Butter adds richness and flavor to this recipe. Don't be afraid to use a generous amount of butter to sauté the vegetables and to coat the bread crumbs.
  • Serve immediately: This appetizer is best served immediately after it's baked. The crab meat and artichokes will be at their best, and the Parmesan cheese will be melted and gooey.

Conclusion:

Crab Artichoke Parmesan Baked Appetizer is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that's perfect for any occasion. It's sure to be a hit with your guests, and it's a great way to use up leftover crab meat. So next time you're looking for a tasty and impressive appetizer, give this recipe a try.
