Crabby Shrimp-Stuffed Garlic Bread Bombs

 

Ingredients:

1 lb pizza dough (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup cooked shrimp, finely chopped

1 cup lump crab meat, drained

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 tablespoons mayonnaise

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped

1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet

with parchment paper.

In a bowl, combine chopped shrimp, crab meat, cream

cheese, mozzarella, mayonnaise, minced garlic, parsley,

Old Bay seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until

creamy and well combined.

Divide the pizza dough into equal small balls (about golf-

ball size).

Flatten each dough piece into a circle and place a

spoonful of the seafood filling in the center.

Carefully wrap the dough around the filling, pinching to

seal completely and forming a smooth ball.

Place each stuffed dough ball seam-side down on the

prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, and

Parmesan cheese.

Brush each dough ball generously with the garlic butter

mixture.

Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until golden brown and

puffed.

Remove from oven, garnish with extra parsley if desired,

and serve warm.
