  • 1 stick of butter soften
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil
  • Dry Sherry or Marsala Wine
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup each of diced onion, celery, red, green pepper, imitation crab meat, and fresh mushrooms
  • 2-4 cloves of chopped garlic
  • 2 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs; I like 4C the best ( mix with crackers )
  • 1 sleeve of crushed Ritz Crackers or Townhouse; I like townhouse
  • handful of finely chopped parsley ( dry may be substituted )
  • slices of bacon; raw for one method and make bacon bits for the other
