Crab Jambalaya
by Crab-O-Licious
This crab jambalaya recipe makes for a real hearty meal. Add a side salad and you're good go, but this is so hearty you really don't need anything else to add to make it a filling meal....maybe some bread and butter!?!
Directions: Lift off back shell (if using whole crab) of the crab. Remove and discard viscera and gills. Rinse crab thoroughly under cool, running water. Break off legs; crack along edges. Cut legs into serving-sized pieces. Break body section into several pieces; remove meat and reserve. Cook bacon until crisp. Add onion and green pepper; cook until tender. Stir in flour; cook 1 minute. Stir in remaining ingredients except for the crab meat. Chop up the tomatoes. Cook 5 minutes and stir occasionally. Stir in reserved crab meat. Arrange cracked crab legs over rice mixture. Cover and cook over medium heat about 5 minutes or until crab is thoroughly heated. This Crab Jambalaya recipe serves 4.

Their shells will turn bright red when properly cooked. Already cooked crab meat is widely available. Although it's often sold frozen, seek out fresh cooked crab meat for the best flavor and texture. In the months of September through April, during most crab fishing seasons is when the local fish markets often sell cooked whole crabs. Ask for them to be cleaned and cracked, or take them home crack them yourself and then remove the meat. Join our newletter "Crab Clique"
