    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1/4 cup butter
2 tbsp diced green bell peppers
2 tbsp pimentos or red bell peppers
1/2 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp capers, drained and chopped
1/4 tsp Tabasco sauce
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp Old Bay Seasoning
1 lb lump crabmeat

Imperial Topping: In a small bowl, combine the following ingredients and mix well:
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup mayonnaise
pinch paprika
1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Preheat oven to 350. In a skillet melt the butter and saute the bell pepper, pimentos and mushrooms until soft and set aside.

Combine all the remaining ingredients, except the crabmeat and topping, in a small bowl and mix well. Add the sauteed peppers and mushrooms to the mixture. Place the crabmeat in a mixing bowl and pour the pepper mixture over it. Toss gently. Spoon the mixture into 4 small individual casserole dishes or well cleaned crab shells or aluminum crab baking shells. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.

While baking prepare the topping. After baking remove the casseroles from the oven. Preheat the broiler. Spoon the topping evenly over each casserole. Place under the broiler 1 to 2 minutes or until nicely browned. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
