Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon sriracha (optional, for heat)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 12 ounces lump crab meat, drained and flaked
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced (reserve some for garnish)
- Sweet chili sauce, for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare Mixture: In a bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth. Add the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, sriracha (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- Add Crab and Cheese: Gently fold in the lump crab meat, ¾ cup of the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and most of the sliced green onions, leaving some for garnish.
- Bake: Transfer the mixture to a greased baking dish and sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup of mozzarella cheese on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the dip is hot and bubbly.
- Garnish and Serve: After baking, drizzle with sweet chili sauce if desired, and garnish with the reserved green onions. Serve warm with wonton chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
Notes
- Wonton Chips: To make wonton chips, cut wonton wrappers into triangles, lightly brush with oil, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes until crispy.
- Crab Meat: Fresh lump crab meat is ideal, but canned or imitation crab meat can be used as alternatives.
- Adjusting Heat: Modify the amount of sriracha and sweet chili sauce to suit your preferred spice level.
