Ingredients
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup crab meat, shredded
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bag tortilla chips
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
3 green onions, sliced
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet or prepare an oven-safe serving platter.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, crab meat, mozzarella cheese, garlic powder, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth and evenly mixed.
3. Spread the tortilla chips in an even layer on the prepared pan.
4. Spoon the crab mixture over the chips in small dollops so the topping is distributed across the tray.
5. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes, until the topping is hot and the cheese is melted.
6. Remove from the oven and drizzle with sour cream and sweet chili sauce.
7. Sprinkle sliced green onions over the top and serve immediately.
Notes
Use thick tortilla chips so they hold the creamy topping without breaking too easily.
Let the cream cheese soften fully before mixing so the crab topping stays smooth and easy to spread.
Add the sauces after baking to keep the chips crisp and the flavors bright.
