Margos Marvelous Crab Dip Recipes

CRAB RANGOON DIP

Steps:

• Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot until it reaches 350 degrees F.
• In batches, carefully lower the wrappers into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a paper towel to drain, sprinkle with salt and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Put the cream cheese, milk, sriracha, brown sugar and soy sauce in medium bowl. With a hand mixer, beat together until smooth, about 1 minute. Fold in the shredded crab meat, cheese and scallion whites. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Transfer to a small baking dish and bake until bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with more cheese, some paprika and the scallion greens. Serve with the fried wonton chips. (If not serving right away, cover the dip with foil to keep warm.)

MARGO'S MARVELOUS CHILI

Steps:

• Blend: Chili's, tomatoes, garlic, onion, 1/2 cup water.
• Brown the meat, add mix, then add cloves, cumin, salt and pepper and bell peppers.
• Simmer for as long as you would like, can add green onions, fresh tomato chunks on top.

CRAB RANGOON DIP WITH CRISPY WONTON CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 2-quart or 8x8-inch baking dish.
• Reserve 1 tablespoon green onions for garnish. Combine the remaining onions with cream cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, Sriracha, soy sauce, lemon zest, and lemon juice and stir until well blended. Fold in crabmeat and pour mixture into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly, about 20 minutes. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Drizzle with sweet chili sauce and sprinkle with reserved green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
• While dip bakes, heat oil in a medium saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Fry 5 to 6 pieces of wonton at a time in batches, flipping several times throughout, until golden, bubbly, and crisp, about 30 seconds. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle immediately with salt. Repeat with remaining wontons and serve immediately with dip. (Alternatively, these chips could be made the day before, cooled completely, and stored in airtight containers).
