Crabmeat on Toast
Ingredients
- 1 stick butter
- 1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons gravy flour (I use Wondra)
- 1 cup half-and-half
- 1 pound lump crabmeat, picked over
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 12 slices white bread, lightly toasted, crusts trimmed, each sliced into 2 triangles
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, melt butter. Add green onions and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, 3-5 minutes. Gradually sprinkle in flour stirring constantly until the raw flour smell is gone, about 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in half-and-half. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in crabmeat, parsley and cayenne pepper. Season to taste with salt and black pepper Cook until crabmeat is heated through. To serve, place four toast triangles on each plate and spoon even amounts of crabmeat mixture on top. Makes 6 servings.
