Units Scale

  • 4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese (I used shredded)

Garnish:

  • Old Bay seasoning (could use paprika)
  • chopped parsley

 

Instructions

  1. In bowl, gently combine crabmeat, mayonnaise, celery, shallot, and Old Bay seasoning.
  2. Place English Muffin halves on baking sheet and broil a few minutes in oven until lightly toasted.
  3. Remove from oven and top with crab mixture, tomato and cheeses.  Broil until cheese is melted.
  4. Garnish with a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning (or paprika) and parsley.

Notes

I layered the melts with the crabmeat mixture and Monterey Jack cheese then put under broiler for a bit to get the cheese to start to melt, then topped with tomato and cheddar cheese and broiled until melted.
