Tender shrimp, sweet crab, a velvety cheese sauce, and a golden, crispy topping come together in every irresistible bite. It’s perfect for summer gatherings, weekend dinners, or whenever you’re craving comforting seafood.

Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients
1 lb (450 g) large shrimp, peeled and deveined
8 oz (225 g) lump crab meat, picked over for shells
2 tbsp butter
2 celery stalks, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp all-purpose flour
1½ cups whole milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
½ tsp paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
½ cup panko breadcrumbs
1 tbsp melted butter
2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
How to make it

1. Prepare the filling:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Melt the butter in a skillet and sauté the celery until softened. Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.

2. Make the creamy sauce:

Sprinkle in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the milk and heavy cream until smooth and thickened. Stir in the cheddar, mozzarella, Parmesan, Old Bay, paprika, salt, and pepper until melted. Baker’s Tip: Remove the sauce from the heat before adding the seafood to keep the shrimp tender.

3. Assemble:

Fold the shrimp and crab into the cheese sauce. Transfer everything to a lightly greased baking dish. Mix the panko with the melted butter and sprinkle evenly over the top.

4. Bake & Finish:

Bake for 20–25 minutes, then broil for 2–3 minutes until the topping is beautifully golden. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Creamy, cheesy, and packed with seafood flavor—this bake is comfort food at its best.
