Crab Florentine Crepes in Creamy Seafood Newburg Sauce Recipe

Enjoy crab recipes? Try our seafood crepes recipe with crab and spinach in a creamy newburg sauce.

This recipe is based on the classic creamy seafood newburg recipe. It's as simple to prepare as it is elegant. As with all of our seafood crepes recipes, this one will should be added to your list of favorite easy fast dinner recipes for family and friends.





Ingredients:

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 cup of half and half
  • 3 tbsp of sherry
  • 2 tbsp of butter
  • ¼ tsp of chili powder
  • ½ tsp of salt
  • ¼ tsp of white pepper
  • 1½- 2 cups of crab meat, cooked and diced into ½-inch pieces
  • ½ cup of frozen spinach, thawed, drained and squeezed dry
  • ½ cup of grated swiss cheese
  • 4 basic crepes
If you made your crepes ahead of time, wrap them in foil and reheat in a 325-degree oven for about 10 minutes or until warmed.

Meanwhile, beat egg yolks in a medium bowl. Add half-and-half, sherry, and seasonings. Set aside. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add egg-cream mixture. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 4-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens. Do not boil. Add crab meat and mix until meat is heated thoroughly. Remove from heat and stir in swiss cheese until melted.

Assemble crepes: Lay first crepe on the serving dish. Pour ¼ cup of crab meat and sauce inside crepe. Roll up and drizzle with 1 tbsp of sauce. Repeat with remaining crepes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Hint: This crepe recipe makes an excellent baked crepe main dish. Assemble your crepes in a casserole dish, cover with extra sauce and top with more swiss cheese. Bake in a 350-degree oven until cheese melts. Serve immediately.

Yield: 4 servings (1 crepe roll each).
