Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup imitation crab meat or fresh crab, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Wonton wrappers (optional, for serving or baking alongside)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Soften the cream cheese at room temperature until smooth for easy mixing. Finely chop the crab meat and slice the green onions into thin rounds for even flavor distribution.
  2. Mix the Base: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with sour cream, soy sauce, and garlic powder. Stir thoroughly until you achieve a creamy, uniform texture that forms the base of the dip.
  3. Fold in Crab and Onions: Gently fold the chopped crab meat and sliced green onions into the creamy mixture, taking care not to break down the crab pieces to maintain texture and flavor.
  4. Transfer and Bake: Spoon the mixture into a small baking dish and smooth the top. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
  5. Serve Warm: Let the dip cool for a few minutes after baking, then serve warm with wonton chips, crackers, or your favorite dippers. Enjoy the gooey, crab-flavored delight!

Notes

  • Use fresh crab meat for best flavor; imitation crab is a budget-friendly alternative.
  • Gently fold ingredients to avoid breaking down crab meat and preserve texture.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to create a smooth, creamy dip.
  • Customize spices by adding Old Bay seasoning or smoked paprika for variation.
  • Serve the dip warm for optimal gooey texture and flavor.
