Found in Cooking Treasures of the Central Coast. Sounded good and I generally have everything in the pantry. If I don't have fresh crab I have used the lump crab meat from Costco.
Ingredients:
1 onion, small chopped
1/2 lb mushroom, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons salad oil
2 cups broccoli, coarsely chopped
1 red pepper, small and chopped
1/2 teaspoon thyme leaves
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 (17 ounce) can cream-style corn
1/3 lb crabmeat
3 cups rice, cooked
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Saute onion and mushrooms in oil till limp.
2. Add broccoli, bell pepper and thyme. Simmer till broccoli is tender about 4 minutes.
3. Add chicken broth, milk and corn and stir. Cook uncovered about 10 minutes or until hot.
4. Stir in crabmeat and rice. Simmer uncovered until hot about 2 minutes.
5. Salt and pepper to taste.
