Preheat your oven to 180°C. Lightly grease a medium baking dish. Preparing the dish first makes the process smooth and stress free. A warm oven ensures even cooking and melted cheese on top.

In a large bowl, add softened cream cheese and mayonnaise. Mix until smooth and creamy. This step creates the rich base of the dip. Make sure there are no lumps for best texture.

Add shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir well to combine. Add garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and lemon juice. These ingredients balance the richness and enhance seafood flavor beautifully.

Gently fold the lump crab meat into the mixture. Do not overmix. You want to keep some crab pieces whole for better texture and taste. Add chopped parsley for freshness.

Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly using a spatula. Sprinkle extra mozzarella cheese on top. This will create a golden and bubbly layer after baking.

Place the dish in the preheated oven. Bake for about 20 to 25 minutes. The dip should be hot and bubbly. The top should turn lightly golden brown.

Remove from oven carefully. Let it rest for five minutes before serving. This helps the dip thicken slightly. Now you know exactly how to make Tullys Crab Dip Recipe at home. Serve warm with crackers or bread.
