Ingredients

  • 5 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup kosher salt
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 stick butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 teaspoons seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds lump crabmeat
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Directions

Step 1
Place potatoes in a large pot with enough cold water to cover. Add kosher salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until fork-tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

Step 2
Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, Greek yogurt, buttermilk, butter, seafood seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a food processor; blend until smooth.

Step 3
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

Step 4
Drain potatoes and mash in a large bowl. Fold in cream cheese mixture. Whisk until smooth and blended. Add in crabmeat, stirring carefully to avoid breaking it up too much. Spoon potato mixture into a large, oven-safe casserole.

Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and toasted, about 10 minutes.

Step 6
Top with chives just before serving.

Cook’s Note:

I use Irish butter and lump king crabmeat.
