Categories     Crab

Time 26m

Yield 6 potatoes, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 large baking potatoes
2 tablespoons butter, plus
4 -6 tablespoons butter
2 medium shallots
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
2 cups cooked crabmeat, preferably Alaska king crab
1 -2 cup grated cheese, depending on size of potatoes (provolone, Muenster or Jack, something mild)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon freshly chopped Italian parsley
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Prick holes in the potatoes with a fork and place directly on the oven rack. Roast until cooked through, about 45 minutes, depending on the size of the potato.
  • While the potatoes are cooking prepare the crab: Add 2 tablespoons of butter to a frying pan. Add the shallots and cook until translucent. Next add the minced garlic and saute in the frying pan to gently brown the shallots and garlic. Add the thyme and crab and cook until heated through. Then set aside.
  • Lower the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Once the potatoes are cooked and cool enough to handle cut, off a small portion of the top making an opening in the potato.
  • Take a spoon and scoop the pulp into a bowl. Place the potato skins on a cookie sheet and put in a 350 degree F oven for about 5 minutes to dry them out and ensure they will be crispy when done.
  • To the potato pulp, add the shallot/crab mixture, remaining butter, cheese and sour cream and mix. Then add parsley, salt and pepper, to taste. Fill the potato shells with the potato/crab mixture. Bake until cheese has melted around 35 to 45 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with parsley.

HELEN'S CRAB STUFFED POTATOES



Helen's Crab Stuffed Potatoes image

This week's recipe is another local award-winning recipe from the Annual Hard Crab Derby in Crisfield, Maryland. Many of our recipes are derived from the local community and are featured in this annual derby event. Some history of the Hard Crab Derby, held every Labor Day, follows: "The first derby was held fifty-two years ago in 1947. This first derby was a simple, uncomplicated affair by today's standards. It consisted of a number of crabs being unceremoniously dumped in the center of a circle which was painted on the street in front of the Post Office. From these humble beginnings the National Hard Crab Derby has grown into one of Crisfield's most successful festivals. The derby has changed locations many times and is now held on the grounds of the Somers Cove Marina. The race format has also been altered. Instead of the crabs being dumped in the center of a circle, they each have their own "starting gate". Once this gate is opened the crabs scurry down a platform to the finish line. In addition to the regular crab derby there is now a governor's cup race in which the governors of the states which constitute our union enter a crab contestant. Entries from Hawaii (1967) and Alaska (1968) have even won this race. The first cooking contest was held in 1965. This popular event was won in that year by Nina Coons of Marion Station. Nina entered a delicious crab casserole as her award winning recipe. Because of its superior cooking facilities, the contest has been held in Crisfield High School. Winning chefs have been mainly from Maryland with a few from Delaware and Pennsylvania."
