1 tsp. butter
1 or 2 cloves garlic, very finely chopped or (better) pureed
1/2 pint heavy cream
1 cup mushrooms, thinly sliced
1 Tbs. fresh chopped parsley

1 tsp. Creole seasoning
1 tsp. lemon juice
5 Tbs. grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler. 1. Heat the butter till it bubbles in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for a minute, until it becomes fragrant. 2. Add the cream and reduce by about a third. Add all the vegetables and return to a boil. Stir in the Creole seasoning, lemon juice, and 3 Tbs. Parmesan cheese. 3. Add the crabmeat and toss in the pan to combine with the sauce. Be careful not to break up the lumps. 4. Divide the mixture into four ovenproof dishes for appetizers, two for entrees. Combine the remaining Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs, and sprinkle the mixture over the top. Put the dishes into the broiler until the sauce begins to bubble. Serve immediately. Serves four appetizers or two entrees.
