These Cheesy Crab and Shrimp Tortilla Bombs with Garlic Cream are a delightful treat, featuring crispy tortilla shells filled with a flavorful mixture of crab, shrimp, and cheese, topped with a luscious garlic cream drizzle.

Ingredients

For the filling:

  • 1 cup crab meat
  • 1 cup cooked shrimp, chopped
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For assembly:

  • 8 small flour tortillas
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, chopped shrimp, shredded cheese, cream cheese, minced garlic, green onions, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  2. Fill the tortillas: Place about 2 tablespoons of the seafood mixture in the center of each tortilla. Fold the tortilla over the filling and seal the edges tightly.
  3. Fry the tortilla bombs: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the tortilla bombs until golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  4. Serve: Remove from the pan, drain on paper towels, and serve warm, drizzled with additional garlic cream if desired.
