  • Prep Time

Ingredients

  • 8 petite potatoes weighing 3 ounces each
  • A quarter cup of succulent crabmeat, cooked to perfection
  • Two teaspoons of creamy nonfat yogurt
  • Two teaspoons of light mayonnaise
  • A duo of teaspoons of finely chopped fresh chives
  • Two teaspoons of finely grated Parmesan cheese
  • A teaspoon of freshly chopped parsley
  • Half a teaspoon of zesty lemon juice
  • Season with a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper to your liking

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, gently simmer potatoes in about 2 inches of water for around 25 to 30 minutes until they are easily pierced with a fork. Once cooked, drain and let them cool slightly before cutting them in half. To create a cup-like shape, use a melon baller to scoop out the center of each potato half.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together crabmeat, yogurt, mayonnaise, fresh chives, grated cheese, chopped parsley, and a splash of lemon juice. Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Take about 1 teaspoon of the crab mixture and carefully spoon it into each hollowed-out potato half.

Step 3

Place the filled potato halves on a baking sheet and broil them about 4 inches below the broiler's heating element for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the tops turn a lovely golden brown. Remember to keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your potatoes in a cool, dark place to ensure they stay fresh and firm.
  2. 2. Store your cooked crab filling in an airtight container in the fridge to maintain its flavors.
  3. 3. To assemble the bites later, store the potato shells in a single layer in the fridge to prevent them from sticking together.
