Ingredients
  

  • 4 large bell peppers
  • ½ lb crab meat drained and flaked
  • ½ lb cooked shrimp chopped
  • 1 cup cooked rice
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup celery finely chopped
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Old Bay seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Set the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish. Cut off the tops of the bell peppers and remove seeds and membranes.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and celery, and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.
  • In a bowl, combine crab meat, shrimp, rice, sautéed veggies, mayonnaise, cheeses, parsley, lemon juice, Old Bay, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
  • Fill each pepper with the seafood mixture, pressing gently to pack them in.
  • Place the peppers in the prepared dish, cover with foil, and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes, until the peppers are tender and the filling is golden.
  • Let the peppers cool for a few minutes before serving.
