PAULA DEEN'S HOT CRAB DIP

From Nov 09 issue of Good Housekeeping, featuring Paula Deen. There are other recipes for her crab dips on here, but this one is very quick and simple, with ingredients that I typically have on hand. I used nuefchatel cheese, and fat free Miracle Whip for a low-fat alternative, and the flavor didn't suffer at all.

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 cups, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
8 ounces crabmeat
1/3 cup mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip)
2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared white horseradish

Steps:

Mix all ingredients thoroughly together in a medium oven-proof dish.
Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, or until browned around the edges.
Alternatively, microwave for 3 minutes (for those of us who are less patient!).

Tips:

Use fresh crab meat. Fresh crab meat has a sweeter, more delicate flavor than canned crab meat. If you can't find fresh crab meat, you can use canned crab meat, but make sure to rinse it well and drain it thoroughly before using.
Don't overcook the crab dip. Crab dip is best when it is cooked just until it is hot and bubbly. Overcooking will make the crab meat tough and rubbery.
Serve the crab dip immediately. Crab dip is best served immediately after it is made. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat it in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit until it is hot and bubbly.
Garnish the crab dip with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or dill add a pop of color and flavor to crab dip. You can also garnish the dip with a sprinkle of paprika or cayenne pepper.
Serve the crab dip with your favorite crackers, chips, or vegetables. Crab dip is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of accompaniments. Some popular choices include crackers, chips, vegetables, and bread.
