Crab and Bacon Bundles

About

Brenda Gantt

I am a self-taught cook. I started cooking around 18 years old. I stood in the kitchen and watched my mother, who was my biggest inspiration at the time, cook.

This quick, hot hors d’oeuvre will impress your guests.

Yield: About 2 dozen servings, each with only a trace of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 4 grams of protein. (Analysis does not include Duck Sauce.)

 

INGREDIENTS 

  • 1 can (6 ounces) crab, drained
  • 1 scallion, finely minced
  • 1/2 pound bacon
  • Duck Sauce

 

INSTRUCTIONS 

  1. Flake the crab, removing any bits of shell or cartilage. Stir in the minced scallion, and set aside.
  2. Cut all your bacon strips in half crosswise, to make two shorter strips. Place a rounded 1/2 teaspoon or so of the crab mixture on the end of a bacon strip, and roll the strip up around it, stretching the bacon slightly as you go. Pierce the bundle with a toothpick, to hold. Repeat until all the crab and bacon strips are used up.
  3. Broil about 8 inches from heat, turning once or twice, until the bacon is crisp-no more than 10 minutes.
  4. Serve with Duck Sauce for dipping.
