Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
8 ounces lump crabmeat, drained and picked through for any shells
2 tablespoons horseradish
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon lemon zest plus 2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 green onions, trimmed and chopped
Nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
Directions
- Add the cream cheese, crabmeat, horseradish, ketchup, lemon zest and juice, Worcestershire, salt, pepper and green onions to a mixing bowl. Use a spatula to mix the ingredients together until everything is evenly combined.
- Spray your hands with nonstick cooking spray. Use a tablespoon-sized scoop to scoop 1 tablespoon of the mixture into your hands and gently roll into a ball. Place on a serving platter. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Mix the chives and dill together in a small bowl. Sprinkle the herbs on top of the bites. Cover and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours before serving.
