Method

In a large bowl combine crab, softened cream cheese, sour cream, and Monterey Jack cheese. Combine well. Mixture should be thick and a little dry looking. Add roasted peppers, garlic and onions; mix together. Add chives and garlic salt. Cover bowl and set mixture into fridge for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, take a loaf of any solid sourdough style bread and tear into chunks. Toss bread in a bowl with some olive oil, paprika and a little garlic powder. Spread in a shallow baking pan. Bake for about 15 minutes until toasted. When ready to serve, spread crab mixture in a microwave-safe pie plate, dot with butter, and microwave until just heated through. Mix will be gooey and buttery and full of rich flavor. Serve with toasted bread chunks. A great appetizer or a main dish.

 

Notes: Dip is best if served warm with butter or margerine freshly melted into it.

 

Number of Servings: 6 to 8
