Crab Melt Sandwiches
by Crab-O-licious.com
Low and slow is the way to go with these Crab Melt Sandwiches. Lowering the heat allows the cheese to melt before the bread becomes overly toasted.
Directions: Preheat broiler. In medium bowl, combine the imitation or fresh crab meat, mayo, sour cream, green onion, dill, and the lemon juice. Set aside. In small bowl, combine butter and cayenne pepper. Generously spread outsides of English muffins halves with the butter mixture. Place 4 of the muffin halves, buttered side down, on baking sheet. Top with the swiss cheese. Broil for 4 to 5 inches from the heat for 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese starts to melt. Remove them from the oven. Spoon the crab meat mixture onto the cheese-topped muffin halves, buttered side up. Heat a large griddle or skillet over medium heat. Add the crab melt sandwiches; cook for about 6 minutes or until muffins are golden brown, turning once. Serve immediately.."get 'em! while they're hot!"

Their shells will turn bright red when properly cooked. Already cooked crab meat is widely available. Although it's often sold frozen, seek out fresh cooked crab meat for the best flavor and texture. In the months of September through April, during most crab fishing seasons is when the local fish markets often sell cooked whole crabs. Ask for them to be cleaned and cracked, or take them home crack them yourself and then remove the meat. Join our newletter "Crab Clique"
