Baked Crab Dip

• 6 oz/170 g fresh crabmeat, well drained
• 1/2 cup/75 g diced red pepper/capsicum
• 1/2 cup/25 g finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• 3 tbsp snipped fresh chives
• 1/2 cup/120 ml reduced-fat mayonnaise
• 4 oz/115 g whipped cream cheese
• 1 1/2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp hot sauce, such as Tabasco
• 1/4 cup/20 g panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
• 1/2 tsp grated lemon zest
• 1 Crostini, Baked Pita Chips, Baked Wonton Crisps, baked potato chips

1. 1. Place the crabmeat in a medium bowl and flake with your fingers. Stir in the bell pepper/capsicum, parsley, and chives. Using a rubber spatula, gently stir in the mayonnaise, cream cheese, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Transfer to a 1-qt/1-L shallow baking dish. In a small bowl, combine the panko and lemon zest.
2. 2. Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat the oven to 425u0b0F/220u0b0C/gas 7. Just before baking, sprinkle the panko mixture on top and bake until the panko is toasty brown and the dip is bubbling at the edges, about 12 minutes. Serve hot.
