Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tbsp butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 celery rib, chopped fine
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped fine
2 oz shrimp, chopped fine
1/4 tsp kosher salt (to taste)
1/4 tsp old bay seasoning , to taste (or cayenne pepper)
2 oz lump crabmeat
2 tbsp seasoned bread crumbs , more if needed
4 medium vidalia onions
1/2 cup chicken broth

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F Peel the onions and cut off tops. Using a sharp knife, score center of each onion. Using a small spoon, scoop out center leaving the two outer layers intact to create a 'bowl' (similar to gutting a pumpkin. Save the insides for another recipe). Place shells into an 8 baking dish and set aside.
MAKE STUFFING: In a sauté pan, heat the olive oil and butter. Add the garlic, celery, and bell pepper. Sauté for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
Add the shrimp and season with salt and Old Bay (to taste). Sauté for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and place mixture into a bowl. Gently stir in the crabmeat, then the bread crumbs a little at a time, adding more as needed to gently bind. Set aside to cool.
ASSEMBLY: Spoon stuffing evenly into onions (do not pack too tightly, just lightly press down into the onions). Pour broth over and around onions. Cover dish and bake for 45-50 minutes or until onions are tender. Remove cover and continue baking for an additional 5-10 minutes to lightly brown the tops.
