Ingredients

• 200 grams Lump crab meat
• 3 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 2 stalks Green onions
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Bread slices
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 100 grams Shredded cheddar cheese
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) and set it to the broil setting.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, finely sliced green onions, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid breaking up the crab meat too much.

Step 3

Lightly toast the bread slices in a toaster or on a skillet until firm but not overly browned.

Step 4

Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each toasted bread slice.

Step 5

Evenly divide the crab mixture between the four slices of bread, spreading it to cover the top entirely.

Step 6

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese generously over the crab mixture on each slice.

Step 7

Place the open-faced sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.

Step 8

Broil in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling, and the edges of the bread are golden.

Step 9

Carefully remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 10

Sprinkle a pinch of paprika over each sandwich for a pop of color and extra flavor.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy your Crab Open Grilled Sandwich!
