This Crab Rangoon dip pairs wonderfully with a variety of dippers. Try serving it with crispy wonton chips, crunchy celery sticks, carrot sticks, or even sliced cucumbers for a refreshing contrast. It’s also delicious scooped up with toasted baguette slices or assorted crackers. For a truly indulgent experience, pair it with a sparkling white wine or a crisp, dry rosé to balance the richness of the dip.
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup crab meat, drained and flaked
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup crab meat, drained and flaked
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Directions
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Gently fold in the crab meat and half of the sliced green onions, being careful not to break up the crab too much.
4. Spread the mixture into a small baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and golden on top.
5. Remove from oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with the remaining green onions and fresh parsley.
6. Serve warm with your choice of dippers.
Variations & Tips
For a lighter version, you can substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream and use low-fat cream cheese. If you like a bit of a kick, add a teaspoon of hot sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture. Swap out the crab meat for chopped cooked shrimp or imitation crab if desired. For an extra cheesy version, top the dip with an additional layer of mozzarella cheese before baking.
