Ingredients

For the Bread Bowls:

  • 4 large round bread rolls

For the Seafood Filling:

  • 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 1 cup cooked crab meat, shredded
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Bread

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Hollow Out the Rolls: Cut off the tops of the bread rolls and gently hollow out the centers, leaving about 1/2 inch of bread around the edges to create sturdy bowls. Set aside the removed bread for another use (e.g., breadcrumbs).

Step 2: Make the Filling

  1. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and mayonnaise. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Seasonings: Mix in minced garlic, lemon juice, and black pepper for a burst of flavor.
  3. Incorporate Seafood and Herbs: Gently fold in the chopped shrimp, shredded crab meat, and fresh parsley. Ensure the mixture is evenly combined.

Step 3: Fill the Bread Bowls

  1. Spoon the Filling: Generously pack the seafood mixture into each hollowed-out bread roll, slightly mounding the top for an appealing presentation.

Step 4: Bake

  1. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the filled bread bowls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and the filling is bubbly.

Step 5: Serve

  1. Garnish: Sprinkle additional fresh parsley on top of each bread bowl for a pop of color.
  2. Enjoy Warm: Serve immediately while the bread is warm and the filling is creamy.
