1 tablespoon garlic, minced

Add the cooled vegetables to the crabmeat and toss to combine. Add the mayo, egg, lemon juice, Worcestershire and hot sauce and stir gently. Add 1 cup of cracker crumbs, salt and pepper to taste, and stir gently, being careful not to break up the crabmeat. Spoon the crabmeat stuffing evenly into each shrimp (about 2 tablespoons), and place, stuffed sides up, in your baking dish. Drizzle with the remaining melted butter. Bake until golden, about 20 minutes, until lightly browned.

I found that the shrimp were a little overcooked. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

The Ritz cracker crumbs added a nice crunch to the shrimp. I also liked the addition of the Old Bay seasoning.
