Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 1 cup lump crab meat
  • 1 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Combine the filling: In a large mixing bowl, blend together the chopped shrimp, lump crab meat, softened cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, fresh parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir until everything is well combined and creamy.
  2. Prepare the pastry: Roll out the thawed puff pastry on a floured surface. Cut it into medium-sized circles or squares.
  3. Assemble and bake: Spoon the seafood mixture onto each piece of pastry, fold them into half-moon shapes, and seal the edges. Brush each with beaten egg wash and drizzle with melted garlic butter. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and bake for 18–22 minutes until golden brown.
