Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup homemade mayonnaise
2 tbsp finely chopped green bell pepper
2 tbsp finely chopped red bell pepper
1 tbsp minced shallots
1 tbsp minced parsley
1 1/2 tsp minced tarragon
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
1 1/2 cups jumbo lump crabmeat , picked over to remove any shell and cartilage
2 to 4 tbsp caviar
1/4 bread crumbs
1/4 finely grated parmesan
2 tbsp butter
1/2 lb fresh pea shoots
1/4 tsp salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
In a medium mixing bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, bell peppers, shallots, parsley, tarragon, salt, and white pepper. Gently fold the crabmeat into the mayonnaise mixture, being careful not to break up the lumps, then carefully fold in the caviar until just mixed.
Divide the crabmeat among 4 scallop shells or shallow ramekins. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon each bread crumbs and cheese on top of each and bake until warmed through and browned on top, about 12 to 15 minutes.
In a large skillet melt the butter, then saute the pea shoots until slightly wilted but still bright green, about 30 seconds. Season lightly with salt and set aside.
Remove the crabmeat shells from the oven and place on 4 plates, and surround with the pea shoots.
