"This crab-stuffed baked potato recipe is simple, elegant, decadent, rich and delicious for anytime. The baked potato innards are mixed with butter, sour cream, green onions, cheddar cheese, crab meat and a pinch of cayenne pepper. They pair beautifully with beef, but these potatoes are so rich that they would serve very well as a meal, along with a salad...."
INGREDIENTS
•
2 large baking potatoes, scored with a length-wise slice (don't cut all the way through), and baked. I bake my potatoes at 400°F for an hour to 1 1/2 hours, depending on the size. This makes for a crispy skin and a light and fluffy inside.
•
1 cup lump crab meat (claw meat works just as well)
•
4 tablespoons butter
•
1/2 cup sour cream
•
1/2 cup green onions, sliced
•
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese (reserve 1 tablespoon per potato)
•
salt and ground black pepper, to taste
•
pinch of cayenne pepper
