Ingredients
1 loaf of French bread or hoagie rolls
½ lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
½ lb lump crab meat
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp sour cream
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt & pepper, to taste
2 tbsp butter, melted
Instructions
1. Cut the bread into thick pieces and hollow each out slightly. Brush with melted butter and toast at 375°F for 5 minutes.
2. In a bowl, combine crab meat, mayo, sour cream, garlic, lemon juice, and mozzarella. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Stuff each bread piece with the crab mixture and top with a shrimp. Sprinkle with Parmesan and parsley.
4. Bake at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, or until shrimp are pink and cheese is melted and golden.

Notes
Use medium shrimp for best size-to-bread ratio.
You can prepare the filling ahead of time and chill it before baking.
Don’t skip toasting the bread—it creates a barrier and prevents sogginess.
