Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cooked shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 1 cup Lump crab meat
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning
- 2 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 slices Sourdough bread slices
- 2 tablespoons Butter (softened)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to broil on high and position a rack in the upper third of the oven.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cooked shrimp, lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, Old Bay seasoning, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix until evenly incorporated.
Butter one side of each slice of sourdough bread and place them buttered side down on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Distribute the seafood mixture evenly across the 4 slices of bread, spreading it to cover the surface.
Top each slice with a generous layer of shredded mozzarella cheese and cheddar cheese, dividing the cheeses evenly among the slices.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and watch closely. Broil for 3–5 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden brown. Be careful not to burn.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the seafood cheese melts cool for 1–2 minutes.
Serve warm with a side of lemon wedges or a small salad for a complete meal.
