1 pound Florida blue crab meat
½ Florida bell pepper, diced small
1 stalk celery, diced small
¼ cup green onions, chopped
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire
2-3 tablespoons softened unsalted butter, for cooking
Several dashes hot sauce (optional)
1 tablespoon seafood seasoning blend (your favorite)
French bread (or your favorite)
Combine all ingredients except for crab meat. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Gently fold in the crab meat, making sure not to break up any large pieces. Add ¾ cup crab salad to each sandwich and spread the softened butter on both pieces of bread. Using a waffle iron, panini press, or sauté pan, grill until golden brown on both sides. Serve warm.
