Indulge in the irresistible flavors of these creamy, buttery Crab and Artichoke Sandwiches—an elevated twist on classic comfort food. Loaded with tender cooked lump crab meat, tangy artichoke hearts, sharp white cheddar, and savory Parmesan, these sandwiches are packed with rich, cheesy goodness. A hint of lemon juice and a dash of optional hot sauce add brightness and heat, perfectly complementing the creamy filling. Sandwiched between crisp, golden sourdough bread and cooked to perfection on the skillet, this gourmet creation is ideal for a quick yet decadent lunch or dinner. Ready in just 25 minutes, this recipe is your go-to for a restaurant-quality meal served hot at home.
In a medium bowl, combine crab meat, chopped artichoke hearts, mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, white cheddar cheese, green onions, minced garlic, lemon juice, hot sauce (if using), salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined into a creamy mixture.
Lay out the sourdough bread slices on a clean surface. Spread a generous amount of the crab and artichoke mixture onto 4 of the slices, spreading it evenly but leaving a small border around the edges to prevent overflow.
Top the filled slices with the remaining 4 slices of sourdough bread to form sandwiches.
Spread softened butter on the outer sides of each sandwich (both the top and bottom pieces of bread).
Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook for 3–5 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crisp, and the filling is warm and gooey.
Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool for 1–2 minutes before slicing in half and serving.
Serve warm with a side of your favorite salad or chips. Enjoy!
