Alternative to crab...

[C~Q]

I'm having a dinner party Friday week and the main is Crab-stuffed Chicken. I double checked yesterday as one of the ladies is pregnant and nope, she can't have Crab

So I don't know whether to change the whole main or just substitute the filling for her chicken? The filling is onion, celery and crab so could I put something else in for her? Maybe onion, celery and...?

Or maybe something totally different?? Does anyone have a yummy chicken recipe that is quite easy (gourmet chef I aint!)?

Any ideas?

TIA guys

how about onion, celery and bacon? or fill hers with a slice of camabert cheese and bacon and or garlic (if she likes garlic)?

So just a slice of cheese? How about if I wrap the cheese in prosciutto?? Hang on though can she have camembert??

[kelebek]

ahh probably not ... let me think about it and get back to you

to have camambert it would need to be heated above sixty degrees - same as bacon and prosciuto.

Oooh really...that should be ok then...but she did say she wouldn't have crab so maybe the cheese and prosc??

Thanks!

i shoudl add that that is the recomendation for any 'cured' / deli meats and any soft cheeses (for listeriosis precautions) - she may still prefer not to if you know what i mean??

I thought you could have seafood and cream cheeses as long as they were cooked thoroughly in a hot oven? You could substitute seafood sticks for crab... they have a very similar flavour... and much cheaper! it's that white stuff with the red on the outside often used as a filler in prawn ****tails. Did you tell your friend that you were going to cook the crab? maybe she just doesn't like it?
