Ingredients
  • 2 lbs. Snow Crab Leg Clusters
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 onion (finely diced)
  • 3 stalks celery (finely diced)
  • 1 sleeve Ritz crackers, crushed
  • 1 cup seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/4 to 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 large green bell peppers

Directions

Steam and pick out Snow Crab. From 2 lbs. of Clusters, you should have about 8 oz. of crabmeat. (It usually fills an 8 oz size cool whip tub!) Set aside.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large frying pan, melt the butter and stir in the Worcestershire sauce.. Let simmer together for a minute or so. Add the onion and the celery, and cook until the onion is translucent. Stir in the crabmeat.

Crush one sleeve of Ritz crackers into the pan. Add the bread crumbs. Mix well. Add just enough milk, so that the stuff all sticks together (it will kind of make a ball). Set aside.

Halve the peppers, removing the seeds and the membrane. Put in a shallow pan, with just enough water to cover them. Bring to a boil, and cook for 5-10 minutes. Remove peppers from the water, and drain well.

Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray. Place peppers in the dish. Put 1/6 of the stuffing mixture in each pepper half. Cover the pan with aluminum foil, and bake at 350 degrees F for about 45 minutes.

Serves 6

NOTES: *one of the southern supermarket chains has snow crab leg clusters on sale about once a month. I wait until they are on sale for $3.99 or $4.99 per pound. That's about half the price that they usually go for.
