Time 1h15m

Yield one 8-by-8-inch baking dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch lacinato kale, stemmed, leaves chopped (see Cook's Note)
1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over for traces of shell and cartilage
3/4 cup grated mild white Cheddar
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
3/4 cup sour cream
6 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup egg-free mayonnaise, such as Vegenaise, or regular mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the kale and 1/4 cup water. When the water boils, reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the kale is tender, about 15 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, mix together the crabmeat, 1/2 cup of the Cheddar, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan and the sour cream, cream cheese, mayonnaise, salt and pepper. Stir in the cooked kale.
  • Transfer the mixture to an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar and 2 tablespoons Parmesan. Bake until the dip is hot and bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and golden, 35 minutes.
