Method

Dip: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix together cream cheese, mayonnaise, bacon, Swiss cheese, crabmeat, lemon juice, Tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, hot pepper flakes, onion, salt and chives. Spoon mixture into a baking dish and sprinkle with paprika. Bake 20 minutes, until bubbling and hot. Cover and keep warm. Chips: Turn oven up to 450 degrees. Dry potato slices between paper towels; arrange slices in a single layer on a buttered sheet pan. Coat potatoes with butter and bake about 15 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Sprinkle lightly with salt and serve with warm dip.

 

Notes: Chopped fresh tomatoes and finely chopped and shredded lettuce, can be sprinkled on top of the hot dip to make a Cheesy Crab BLT Dip. The dip can also be prepared ahead of time and simply heated for a party.

 

Number of Servings: 6-8
