In a separate 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat, add crab and artichokes, and saute. Stir in flour, add cream and then season, to taste, with salt and pepper.

Bake in oven until “souffle” is golden brown, about 7 to 8 minutes.

Reviews
Does taste a little fishy but go easy on the crab boil aka old bay seasoning. Also the artichokes take a little bit of the fish flavor away. I added chopped parsley and sprinkled lemon on the crab topping. It was really easy to make and very light. I paired it with brown rice and total cost me $19 to make 6 servings. Very gourmet looking for a great price.
I have always looked at others’ reviews before I make something. This sounded good and elegant. My lump crab was fresh; the chicken as well. The overall dish was too “fishy” for me. Thank you, tho, for all your dishes I look forward too!
yet easy. Very delicious and easy to make.
Preparation is simple, and the meal is delicious. I look forward to making this again.
I’m on a low carb deit, so i used grated swiss cheese instead of a half of cup of flour. I also added the crab last in order to keep it in lump form
Made this dish today and it was awesome! I used a Lemon & Herb Old Bay seasoning that gave it a little zing to it. OH! I can’t wait to make it again and my husband can’t either!
beatiful,and comforting.
