INSTRUCTIONS
Note: See the "Bayou Blast - {Emeril's Creole Seasoning}" and "Red
Bean Relish" recipes which are included in this collection. Heat oven
to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper.
Melt butter in a medium skillet over high heat. Add onions, celery,
green and red bell peppers, garlic, 2 teaspoons of the Bayou Blast,
1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 4 turns pepper; saute 2 to 3 minutes. Add
crabmeat and toss gently, taking care not to break up crabmeat lumps,
about 1 minute. Remove from heat and allow to cool 3 to 4 minutes.
Whisk egg in a large bowl, and stir in crabmeat mixture. Stir in
Parmesan, mustard and bread crumbs. Makes 2 1/2 cups stuffing. Shape
into 16 balls, using about 2 1/2 tablespoons for each ball. Sprinkle
shrimp with the remaining 2 teaspoons Creole Seasoning, and rub in
well with your hands. Press one stuffing ball into each shrimp and
arrange the shrimp on baking sheet. Sprinkle top of stuffing with the
remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bake until brown, about 10 minutes. To
serve, mound Red Bean Relish in the center of each plate, arrange 4
shrimp around the relish, and sprinkle green onions around the plate.
