POOR MANS CRABS image

Being from Maryland and now living in Georgia, I have truely missed good seafood. I LOVE this recipe; it came from my husband who remembered eating this at a friend's house many years ago and recreated his own version of it until he found perfection. This is a regular meal at our house. What is great about this recipe...

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 boneless, skinless chicken breast
old bay seasoning
6 to 10 small red potatoes
1 large vidalia or sweet onion
distilled white vinegar
squeezable butter
1/2 corn on the cob (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Trim up the chicken then cut into medium size chunks
  • 2. Cut out bad spots of potatoes and cut them into medium size chunks. (You may leave the skin on)
  • 3. Chop onion into large chunks.
  • 4. In the bottom of your steamer, put a cup of distilled white vinegar and fill the rest with water.
  • 5. If you are using a double steamer place the chicken seasoned with Old Bay on the bottom. If you put it on the top it will drip onto your veggies. Also you do not need to season with as much Old Bay because some of the top steamer seasoning will drip down it.
  • 6. Place the onion, corn and potatoes on the top steamer. Season with Old Bay and butter.
  • 7. Steam until chicken is done and potatoes are soft. It is usually about an hour.
  • 8. Top off with more butter if desired or serve with melted butter on the side for dipping.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover crab meat. I usually have some leftover after making crab legs, and this is a great way to use it up.

I'm not a big fan of imitation crab, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The crab cakes were actually really good.

The only thing I would change about this recipe is to add a little more Old Bay seasoning. I like my crab cakes with a bit of a kick.

I made this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The crab cakes were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was perfect.

This recipe is a great way to enjoy the flavors of crab without breaking the bank. The imitation crab is a good substitute for real crab, and the other ingredients come together to create a delicious and satisfying dish.
