Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 large round sourdough bread loaf
- 1 lb mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, crab meat)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 small onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Cut off the top of the bread loaf and hollow out the center, leaving about a 1-inch thick shell.
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sauté until softened.
- Add mixed seafood and cook until shrimp turns pink and scallops are opaque, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in heavy cream, mozzarella, Parmesan, Old Bay seasoning, and black pepper. Cook until cheese melts and mixture thickens slightly.
- Spoon the seafood mixture into the hollowed bread bowl. Place the bread top back on and wrap the whole loaf in aluminum foil.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Remove foil, bake for another 5 minutes until bread is crispy. Garnish with parsley before serving.
