I leave out the bell pepper, but my wife likes it. Ingrediants: 1 lb. lump crab meat ¼ cup diced celery ¼ cup diced onion ¼ cup diced red bell pepper ¼ cup fresh basil 1 oz. diced bread ½ cup mayonnaise How To: Place crab meat onto sheet pan and spread evenly. Place sheet under broiler for approx. 2 minutes. Remove all shells from crab meat. In a large saucepan, sauté celery, onions and red pepper for approx. 2 minutes. Place sautéed vegetables on sheet pan and allow to cool under refrigeration, 10 minutes. dice day-old bread into 1/4 inch cubes. Slice basil into julienne strips. In a large mixing bowl, place crab meat, bread, basil and sautéed vegetables and mix gently. Fold in mayonnaise. Using a 4 oz. scoop, portion onto half sheet pan. Place in oven at 350 degrees for 15 minutes and serve with Cajun Lobster Sauce. The following recipe is pretty close to the Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Recipe – very little filler.
