Even though their red color suggests otherwise, Piquillo peppers are not spicy but mild and sweet. If you can’t find jarred Piquillo peppers use red roasted peppers instead.

Ingredients

1 pound lump crab
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup crème fraîche
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons snipped chives
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup Romano cheese, shredded
1, 9-ounce jar piquillo peppers, drained and cut into strips

Directions

Preheat your oven broiler.
In a medium bowl mix together the crab, mayonnaise, crème fraîche, parsley, chives, mustard, lemon juice and 3/4 cup of the Romano cheese; blend well.
Evenly distribute the mixture into an 8x11-inch baking dish and sprinkle with the piquillo peppers and the remaining 1/4 cup Romano cheese.
Place in broiler for about 7 minutes. Serve hot with crackers or toasted pita wedges.
