Serves: 2-3

Ingredients

• 1 lb jumbo lump crabmeat (or lump)
• ½ cup Hellman’s Mayonnaise
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp old bay
• 1 tsp finely chopped Italian parsley
• 1 large egg lightly beaten
• squeeze of lemon juice

Instructions

1. Mix mayonnaise, egg, sugar, old bay, lemon juice and parsley together and blend well, this is your imperial sauce.
2. Gently fold crabmeat into imperial sauce, being careful not to break up crab meat.
3. place portions in baking dish using ramekins or small casserole dishes*
4. Bake in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes (top will turn golden brown)
5. Allow to cool just a few minutes before serving, it will set and be more flavorful as it cools slightly.

Notes

Depending upon what you serve as a side dish you can get 3 portions out of this. You really don’t want to make it any smaller than ⅓ of a pound per person though. If you want to stretch this, think about making stuffed shrimp with the filling, that could easily serve 4 people.
